      Anyone who discovers water’s actual name would have total power over it and command all the seas. Turns out water was actually an eldritch demon whose only purpose was to create a legion of legions of living creatures entirely dependent on it for their survival. One day the being that is water will be ready and their grander plans will see us all conquering the stars.

      That’s actually speculated to be the case with the word “bear.” There was a superstition that saying its true name might summon it.
