The Song of Heaven

Once, there was a drying, dying world. As the oceans turned to deserts of salt, the people huddled in their cities and cried out in fear. The ruler of the Unreal City heard. She believed that the land belonged to her, so she set out to save it.
The quest was long and difficult. It taxed her resources and required more from her than she had thought possible to give. In the end, she alone found the grotto harboring a wounded god. It had enough life left in it to instruct her how to take its power into herself.
A woman strode out of the gates of the Unreal City, and a woman returned with the oceans behind her; but whether they were the same person, not even she could say.

Maristela, Empress of the Unreal City. Regent of the Abyss
