Sargasso is a demon in the series.
History[]
The Sargasso Sea is a region of the Atlantic Ocean bounded by four currents forming an ocean gyre. Unlike all other regions called seas, it has no land boundaries. It is distinguished from other parts of the Atlantic Ocean by its characteristic brown seaweed and often calm blue water.
The naming of the Sargasso Sea for its seaweed dates from the early 15th-century Portuguese explorations of the Azores Islands and of the large "volta do mar" (the North Atlantic gyre), around and west of the archipelago, where the seaweed was often present. However, the sea may have been known to earlier mariners, as a poem by the late 4th-century author Rufus Festus Avienus describes a portion of the Atlantic as being covered with seaweed, citing a now-lost account by the 5th-century BC Carthaginian Himilco the Navigator.
The biggest myth of the Sargasso sea is that the seaweed known as Sargassum entangles ships intentionally, when in fact it is the lack of wind that traps the ships at sea. The seaweed grows in large amounts on the surface and its proximity near the Bermuda Triangle most likely lead to this myth.
