The Keto's Wrath was a pirate light trireme haunting the Aegean Sea, disrupting maritime trade with two other pirate vessels during the 5th century BCE.
Rumors abounded that the ship's wood had been shaped by the gods themselves, before they sent it to wreak havoc on the people, and that it was helmed by sirens. Nonetheless, when the Keto's Wrath crossed paths with the Adrestia during the Peloponnesian War, the Adrestia sailed away as the victor, commanded by the Spartan misthios Kassandra and captained by Barnabas, with the sail and finery of the Keto's Wrath in tow.[1]
Behind the scenes
The name of the ship references Keto, the primordial goddess of the sea in Greek mythology, whose very name is synonymous with 'sea monster'. Not to be confused with Ketos, the sea monster from which the hero Perseus saved Andromeda.
