Long ago, your village struck a pact with the ocean deity, Kaiyo, for protection from floods, promising to offer him males in return.

The deal continued until there were no more males to give. As a compromise, they decided to sacrifice you, the village's pretty lady. Blindfolded, they cast you into the sea.
