‘Though my strength could shatter the world above, I choose the path of wisdom and peace beneath the waves.’
— Aegiros, the Sea Jotunn
The Sea Jotunn, also known as the tide giants, are colossal beings capable of destroying a tower with a single blow from their mighty anchors, though they rarely do so due to their wisdom and deep calm. What a Sea Jotunn is doing allied with the Jurakin of the Death-Tide is a mystery; perhaps Aegiros is bound by a pact made with the sea witch of Kurkalla, the tyrant eye of the depth. It is unclear whether the sea giants are ancestors of the Tritons or if they are Jotunn adapted to survive underwater through eons of adaptation beneath the sea, but normally, this race of Jotunn does not surface and remains hidden from mortal eyes.
