if the chain ever breaks...

With the constant dancing of the auroras in the sky, it's made me think of the Zoryas. Don't know who the Zoryas are? Here's a quick rundown.

Zorya Utrennyaya is the Morning Star
Zorya Vechernyaya is the Evening Star.

They guard and watch over the doomsday hound, Simargl, who is chained to the star Polaris in the constellation Ursa Minor, the "little bear". If the chain ever breaks, the hound will devour the constellation and the universe will end.


 For protection, say the following prayer to the Zorya:
O Virgin, unsheath your father's sacred sword.
Take up the breastplate of your ancestors.
Take up your powerful helmet.
Bring forth your steed of black.
Fly to the open field,
There where the great army with countless weapons is found.
O Virgin, cover me with your veil.
Protect me against the power of the enemy,
Against guns and arrows, warriors and weapons,
Weapons of wood, of bone, of copper and iron and steel.
