Desert religions have no place with our people. Like a door-to-door salesman that leaves you with less than average merchandise.

Garsecg, the English god of the Seas. His name appears quite often in Old English texts, but little is really known about him. The root Gar means spear – as in the English Gar rune. The word 'Secg' can vary and can mean sword but also hero or warrior. Here it would suggest his name means 'Spearman', a folk memory from ancient hunter gatherer times maybe.
There is an older root-meaning for the word Gar, from the PIE *ǵʰey which means 'to drive, move or fling'. Perhaps his name is a reference to the ocean waves, tidal currents and stormy seas which tossed ships and drowned sailors.
