Editing Krakens (section)

==Chronology==

Krakens have waned like many other species, but are still considered extant. They have learned not to challenge the last [[Treants]].

During the True Antinium sea fleet voyage, the largest known Kraken called Old Hungry<ref name=":0" /> was awoken by [[Lidera]] in her last act as a Luminary<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/12/23/9-70-pt-1/ Chapter 9.70 (Pt. 1)]</ref> to attack them during a storm. It caused the deaths of 16 of the Centenium, with [[Galuc]] being one of them as he dove into the oceans to tear the Kraken’s tentacle off. It also caused [[Klbkch]] to lose his true form, and sank 200 warships containing the other true Antinium within, leaving only 4 battered, sinking ships, with less than 20 junior Queens. Thus this Kraken attack caused the second greatest defeat for the Antinium since their [[First Grand Queen|First Queen]] fell.<ref name=":6.29" /> Old Hungry later died from something tearing into him and destroying many of his hearts. His body lies amids shipwrecks and has fed generations of fish since.<ref name=":0" />

The last three Kraken attacks on a coastline happened in [[Cenidau]], [[Rhir]], and [[Izril]]. In Cenidau, the Kraken was fended off with the notable contribution of [[Gorethem]], who would earn his nickname of Krakenblood from the event. In Rhir, the attacking Kraken was slain by the [[Blighted Kingdom]]. In Izril, the Kraken lost a tentacle to a Goblin tribe, who would devour it and be known as the [[Kraken Eater Tribe]].<ref name=":0" />

The Emerald Signet travelled through Kraken's Pass while travelling to different diving locations. They encountered a Goblin ship there, but neither side initiated combat, as they had to stay quiet to not attract a Kraken. The ships left Kraken's Pass without issue.<ref name=":SS-Pt.1" />

While the Sea Courier, [[Seve-Alrelious]], was sailing trough Typhoon Erannda to deliver the ''Occillium'', he sees a Kraken’s tendril shoot across the water and seize a [[Sea Serpents|Sea Serpent]] down to prey on. Seve would then send a ''Krakens at sea'' [Message] to warn the other Couriers doing the same delivery.<ref name=":7.49" />

The Krakens would be disturbed by the raising of Izril's New Lands, which altered the underwater geography, and by [[Belavierr Donamia|Belavierr]] travelling underwater, whose presence caused them nightmares while they hibernated.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/epilogue/ Epilogue]</ref>

One adult male Kraken tried to hunt Belavierr for a week as she travelled undersea, but he could not inflict any damage to her. Eventually, the [Witch] distracted him with a puppet while she went to his lair and killed his children. When the Kraken realized what happened, he furiously destroyed the puppet then fled in terror while Belavierr taunted him and followed after him.<ref name=":0" /> The Kraken surfaced and lashed out at the assembled fleets during the ''Night of Bloodtear'', eventually being killed by the combined attackers.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/12/23/9-70-pt-2/ Chapter 9.70 (Pt. 2)]</ref>
