* Glow-wights are said to worship the “Girsh Nephilim” as gods.<ref>{{Favilink | Elder Irudad}} states this.</ref> This suggests that Bethsaida is one of these Girsh Nephilim, as is [[Agolgut]], and that the glow-wight cultists worship Bethsaida as a god (rather than some lesser object of veneration).

Bethsaida

A creature of immensity mounts the upper eyeline. Leather trapezii swell with the pump of overfurcate capillaries, vapor attaches to their starless nares, and long hand-feet fork into a hundred digits each. Over the raw humps of their body, even the deadest of lifegrowth (hair, nails) is quickened to act and writhes like startled maggots. Finally, irisdual light churning under their tx-glass skin is filtered to a viscus hue and radiates out of body in lituus spirals.
