Default Re: Colonial Patch the ancent connection...

I used to love the mythology of the show and the fact that there were so many names taken from it used throughout the show.

Apollo; Athena; Adama; Lucifer; Troy, etc.

The only bones I have to pick is that nothing was used from Celtic mythology, such as Celtic Knotwork as a motif, or even used for embroidery or any other kind of decoration.

There were no Celtic names like Liam, Brandon, Morrigan, Saoirse, Finn, Moira, Catriona, or Fiona used at all.

And to call Siress Belloby a witch is an insult to all witches.

Hag, yes; witch no.

And even hags may be insulted at the comparison.

How about calling her 'Baba Yaga'? She seems the type to eat men alive in her spare time, and have a house with a pair of chicken legs to get about.
