Dasya
Saint Dasya was a Christian martyr of the third century. He was born in Tanda, Egypt, and served as a soldier in the Roman army. Refusing to deny Christ, Dasya was tortured by Arianus, governor of Ansena, and his head eventually cut off. His feast in the Coptic Orthodox Church is on 2 Thout.

Bejoo himself had always harbored a faint suspicion that Tataka might simply be some insane dasya woman, one of those cannibalistic thugs who had taken to waylaying travelerslike the highway thugs who claimed to be acting on orders from goddess Kali herself.
But the being that bore down on them now was no dasya, highway thug, or cannibal tribal.
