Orcinus

Cruel and cold like winds on the sea Will you ever return to me? Hear my voice, sing with the tide My love will never die Over waves and deep in the blue I will give up my heart for you Ten long years, I’ll wait to go by My love will never die Come, my love be one with the sea Rule with me for eternity Drown all dreams so mercilessly And leave their souls to me Play the song you sang long ago And wherever the storm may blow You will find the key to my heart We’ll never be apart Wild and strong you can’t be contained Never bound nor ever chained Wounds you caused will never mend And you will never end Cruel and cold like winds on the sea Will you ever return to me Hear my voice sing with the tide Our love will never die But time goes on and still you roam The ocean depths, forever alone You left me here to grieve and pine But still my love remains divine I'll wait for you, my love, my own And hope that you will return to me But if you never come back again I'll find solace in the memory Of your wild and stormy soul And the love that I once knew But until then, my heart will hold A love that will never die.

Captain of Iliad Wolf of the High Seas Transmuted Treasure Familiar Those who say all that treasure will never keep you company are probably feelin' pretty silly right about now. It's you and your money, goin' it alone! 1500

They could not wipe out the North-East gales
Nor what those gales set free —
The pirate ships with their close-reefed sails,
Leaping from sea to sea.

The pirates roamed the ocean wild
Their flags of black and red unfurled
With treasure and with plunder piled
They left destruction in their wake

Despite the storms that raged above
The pirates sailed with fearless love
For adventure and for freedom's sake
They braved the waves and braved the storm

But time has passed and pirates fade
Into the pages of history
Their ships now rust and rot away
But still their legend lives on strong.

In an honest service there is thin commons, low wages, and hard labour. In this, plenty and satiety, pleasure and ease, liberty and power. No, a merry life and a short one shall be my motto. Since I had dipp'd my hands in muddy water, I must be a pirate. It's better being a Commander than a common man.

Of all the pyratical crews that were ever heard of, none of the English name came up to this, in barbarity. Their mirth and their anger had much the same effect, for both were usually gratified with the cries and groans of their prisoners; so that they almost as often murdered a man from the excess of good humour, as out of passion and resentment; and the unfortunate could never be assured of safety from them, for danger lurked in their very smiles.

Etymology
Latin Orcinus (“of the realms of the dead”), from Orcus + -inus

Orcus was a god of the underworld, punisher of broken oaths in Italic and Roman mythology. As with Hades, the name of the god was also used for the underworld itself. In the later tradition, he was conflated with Dis Pater.

Orcus was portrayed in paintings in Etruscan tombs as a hairy, bearded giant. It is likely that he was transliterated from the Greek daemon Horkos, the personification of Oaths and a son of Eris.

Suffix
-īnus m (feminine -īna, neuter -īnum); first/second declension

Of or pertaining to; -ine; usually indicates a relationship of position, possession, or origin.
