[iorixs]

she isnt going to pillage hell and she isnt leading an army of women, she is sacking and pillaging the country leaving behind misery and degradation. her house is ablaze her husband demented, everywhere there is destruction, misery, obscenity, defilement, humiliation and social and moral collapse. she has the look of shock on her face when she sees hell's maw ready to devour her

Dulle Griete means Mad Maggie in Flemish or German.
