What is kings henrys fifth wife called?

King Henry VIII's fifth wife was named Catherine Howard. She was a cousin of his second wife, Anne Boleyn, and married Henry in 1540 when she was around 17 years old. Catherine Howard's marriage to Henry lasted just over a year before she was executed for adultery in 1542.

Is it wrong to give up on a relationship even though you made a commitment?

No commitment is unconditional and unqualified. You are bound to commitments you make only within reason. You have a RIGHT to change your mind whenever you want to. Life is too short. If the person is crazy, abusive etc etc, you can break the commitment. Obviously, this doesn't seem like a "flight-of-fancy" for you and sometimes, you have to save your own skin. I debated this soon after I left my abuser. However, I realized that when I made the commitment, it was based on that presumption of love and trust, not abuse. The abuser changed the relationship and therefore I changed (backed out of) my commitment.

Why did they give her to the cracken?

In the context of stories or myths, giving someone to a creature like the Kraken often serves as a dramatic plot device to illustrate themes of sacrifice, desperation, or appeasement of powerful forces. It could symbolize the characters' willingness to make a difficult choice in the face of insurmountable odds or the societal pressures that lead to such decisions. Ultimately, it reflects the tension between humanity and the unknown.
