Sorcerer Eltibald, believed by some to be a prophet, and by others to be a madman, claimed to have deciphered the ancient Dauk, Wozgor and bobołak legends, which connected the return of Lilit with the eclipse known as the Black Sun. Her path was to be prepared by "sixty women wearing gold crowns, who would fill the river valleys with blood", which he interpreted as girls of royal families born during or after the eclipse.
