The Theia was a trireme captained by The Octopus, a member of the Gods of the Aegean Sea branch of the Cult of Kosmos.
During the Peloponnesian War the Theia crossed paths with the Adrestia, a ship commandeered by the Spartan misthios Kassandra and captained by Barnabas. In the following conflict The Octopus was slain.[1]
Trivia
