From life-giving water and fertile earth, we move to a goddess whose power is a little more...destructive. ⚡
Stryge is the Goddess of Storms, Sky, and Magic. She’s an Eagle that rules the Salt Flats. While she has quite the temper, get on the destructive deity’s good side and she will bless you with the knowledge of her power.
She rewards the ambitious and does not mind flaunting her power over the weather. She could bless the rains or conjure a wicked lightning storm at her will. Alas, abusing her gifts or deceiving her only amplifies her already rather fickle attitude to everyone around.
“Here to misuse what’s left of my power?”
The Salt Flats used to be a prosperous place - the three lighthouses became beacons of hope and knowledge for adventuring mages. Stryge often had a soft spot for plants, such as the Moon Glory flowers that blossomed in Gleb’s Canyons. The local Witchwood trees were tended to by the Mages, much to her delight. The Mages in turn benefited from this arrangement, since the Salt Flats yielded precious pearls that local water often created.
“The wraiths took everything in this world in the hope of eternal life. Let them suffer in the world they’ve made.”
Free Stryge from her wraith prison and she’ll grant you the power of the wind through the Cloak of Winds. Initially, it’ll allow you to glide through the air (consuming your mana as you do so) but, if you continue to be brave, you may impress her enough to upgrade it. She may even find you talon-ted!
She will also allow you a small amount of her “shocking” power if you bring her a dry feather from one of the surviving birds. Throw this feather to unleash a concentrated lighting bolt and a gust of wind- good for clearing wraiths and their murky corruption. The further away you throw, the more powerful the wind will be!
