straaków
Straaków are a fictional species originating from the novel "The Starless Sea" by Erin Morgenstern. They are described as creatures that exist within the dreamlike, labyrinthine world known as the Harbor. Little is explicitly known about their physical form or origins, as they are more symbolic than literal beings within the narrative. They are often associated with stories, memories, and the very essence of the Harbor itself. Their presence suggests a connection to the deeper, more mysterious aspects of this hidden world. Straaków are not characters in the traditional sense, but rather elements that contribute to the enigmatic atmosphere and thematic exploration of the novel, which delves into themes of fate, storytelling, and the boundless nature of imagination. Their role is to evoke a sense of wonder and the ancient, timeless quality of the places and narratives within the book.
