Aesacus in Lithuanian

(Greek mythology) A son of King Priam, either by the naiad Alexirrhoë or the seer Arisbe, who interpreted the dreams of Queen Hecuba when she bore Paris and who mourned the deceased daughter (either Asterope and Hesperia) of the river-god Cebren; in Ovid’s Metamorphoses transformed by Tethys (Cebren’s mother) into a diving seabird (perhaps a cormorant or Scopoli’s shearwater) when he threw himself from atop a sea-cliff in grief.
