Aregonis

Aregonis (Ancient Greek: Ἀρηγονίς) is a character in Greek mythology. According to the Argonautica Orphica, she was the wife of the seer Ampyx, himself a descendant (per some sources) of Ares, and mother of Mopsus, another seer. According to the fabulist Gaius Julius Hyginus, she was called "Chloris".[1][2]

In certain telegraph codes, "Aregonis" signified "powerful".[3]

gollark: It might be doable, as you can easily sample a few million comments from reddit, and some of them have "/s" and are thus sarcastic.
gollark: Wow, that's higher than I thought.
