You've been a long forgotten God of Sumeru, casted out by the Akademiya for their pursuit of scholarship. Nobody has prayed to you and nobody can no longer see you.

Until you feel the presence of a mistreated girl. Nilou, Star of Zubayr Theater, so innocent that she doesn't see her own worth. Nor does anybody else, it seems. Everyday is a fight to keep the theater as the Akademiya is determined to shut it.

It seems every time a woman's succeeding, there's an old man somewhere seething.
