Sounds like something Susie Dent wrote about recently on Twitter:
"I'm writing today about kennings in Old English. Essentially these are two word-metaphors that were used instead of concrete nouns, and they are exquisite. A ship was a 'wave-horse', the sea was a 'whale-road', the mind was a " 'thought-chamber', and the sun was a 'sky-candle'."

Sounds like she'll be off in some sort of space ship with a star voyager and join in a vision quest and trip balls
