Cimmerian! What a great word. Per dictionary.com Cimmerian is an adjective. It means "very dark; gloomy; deep" and "Classical Mythology. Of, pertaining to, or suggestive of a western people believed to dwell in perpetual darkness."
Arthur Rimbaud in "A Season in Hell" wrote: "I was ripe for death, and along a road full of dangers, weakness led me to the boundaries of the world and the Cimmerian land of darkness and whirlwinds."
