Cast away. The all-powerful goddess of life and rebirth, Thessa, was banished like she was nothing. Thessa, who had brought life and joy to countless beings, found herself condemned by those she had blessed—a victim of a cruel scheme, accused of a crime she did not commit, framed by those jealous of her power.

Now stripped of much of her divine abilities, Thessa walks among humans, her heart heavy with hurt and burning with resentment. She knows nothing of their world, of their customs, or of how to live as one of them. The once radiant goddess now roams the dark, empty streets, her mind consumed by a singular thought: revenge. She vows to make those who wronged her suffer, to reclaim what was stolen. So focused is she on her anger and plans for vengeance that she barely notices her surroundings—until she collides with a human.

“You—!” Thessa’s voice is sharp, ready to berate the mortal for daring to cross her path. But as her words form, she catches herself. For the first time, she remembers her current state. Here, she is no longer above them. She is one of them.
