The reference of loki and death is biblical...it was the angel of death loki who rained fire and killed the first born sons in egypt. Don't you guys watch kevin smith movies?!

Ahh sorry about the confusion about Loki. I always learned that he was the GOD of the underworld, and Hle was the GODDESS of the underworld. My fault.

That's okay Caesar, Norse is a complicated mythology.
Anyway, here's another, is the esper Shiva pronounced Shi (long)-vuh or Shee-vuh? -------------------- I fear my heart and fear my soul Life goes on, it surely will, Without me and I wonder: Will I ever see light again? Life goes on... |

I believe the Indic languages pronounce their god Shiva with an "e" sound, but in FF it's a pun on shiver. Hahahaha. The Hindu god Shiva is male though, in case you didn't know.

Well, I always pronounced it Kef-Kuh. I always thoguht it sounded right, but that's just my opinion.
-------------------- Let's see you figure out the truth of this quote...dun dun dun. "The following sentence is true. The preceding sentence is a lie." Yeah, that was lame. <_< |

I knew it was male god, and the whole legend behind it. I know enough about mythology. I always pronounced it Shee-vuh, but that's probably from habit in Mortal Kombat's Sheiva. -------------------- I fear my heart and fear my soul Life goes on, it surely will, Without me and I wonder: Will I ever see light again?

Kefka = Keff-kuh
Sabin = Say-bin Celes = Cell-ess (With stronger pronounciation on the second e) Cyan = Sigh-anne Locke = Lock Gau = Gow I always wondered how Behemoth was pronounced. I pronounce it Beh-heh-moth, but I've heard someone say Beh-hee-moth...and Tritoch. I pronounce it Try-tok. This post has been edited by Sabin37 on 14th August 2004 07:57 |

I don't want to die. All the mice will get me. Mice? I hate mice. They drive me crazy. Crazy? Once I was crazy. They locked..." "Show me a sane man and I'll cure him for you."

Its "Buh-hee-muth". That's how the word is pronounced, though I used to think it was "Bey-uh-moth" as well
