The green has me thinking of water for some reason also, and that makes me think 'school of fish'? Or perhaps it is a 'bed of snakes' in the grass.#3: Kathy McKenzie (xwordgal) on Feb 25, 2018

Kristen, your "sea beasties" comment makes me think of krakkens. What would a group of krakkens be called? You know, other than "certain death".#11: Susan Duncan (medic25733) on Feb 26, 2018
Another good idea for a series Brian! On to the next one#12: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Mar 1, 2018

The English word kraken is taken from Norwegian. In Norwegian Kraken is the definite form of krake, a word designating an unhealthy animal or something twisted (cognate with the English crook and crank). In modern German, Krake (plural and declined singular: Kraken) means octopus, but can also refer to the legendary kraken.
So, it's one Krake, but two Kraken. Who knew?
O.o#14: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Mar 1, 2018
I just edited my comment. I's misread it the first time (kraken is plural)#15: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Mar 1, 2018
So, "release the kraken" is even more ominous than I thought.#16: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Mar 4, 2018
Indeed!#17: BRASH ATAOM (BRASHatAOM) on May 19, 2022
I think the collective noun for Kraken should be as suggested above: A Certain Death of Kraken.... And if there are no Kraken to be found? A Certain Dearth of Kraken....#18: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on May 20, 2022
I think you're onto something, there.
