Sakwocytakhi

In Bep mythology and folklore, Sakwocytaĸ̊i (Bep: /sa.kʷɤ.t͡se.ta.ʰki/) is a snake-like creature and primal force, representing and manifesting itself as decay, primarily in the form of erosion and dispersion. It is primarily associated with oceans and wind, though it may also take on aspects of rivers. It typically takes on brighter blue and reddish colours, the former associated with the sea and clear season skies, the latter with drift season skies. Sakwotsétahkí in general is more associated with the clear season, as a contrast to its counterpart Krwmnwkoxaĸ̊i; it not being strictly bound to one seasonal association is often attributed to its principle of freedom. It is said to show up seeking nourishment alongside Krwmnwkoxahkí when major misfortune befalls people. The two are sometimes dubbed the cake snakes in English. When someone is injured or dying, it is common to place pastries nearby for these two to eat in hopes of making them more lenient, delaying, or deterring them entirely. The specific pastry kinds vary heavily by region and social status, but those intended for Sakwotsétahkí tend to be of the dried, salty kind. It is also typical for them to be deliberately flakey, placed reasonably high up so that the pastries may decompose via weather.
