Geolu
The Yellow God (a.k.a. The Light Giver, The Lore Maker, The Punisher, The City Watchress, The Sky Throned, The Golden, The Oppressor, The Conquerer, The Crusader, The Prideful, Unchanging Desert, Urbania)
"Geolu, the Yellow God, whose breath brought order to our lands, whose words are law, whose bonds are unbreakable. Please lend us your judgement so that your light may shine" The prayer of Geolu, emblazoned on the front of The Law of the Porphorion Empire Vol. 2
Even during the Chaos that was The Travail is is said that Geolu stood resolute and calm. A statuesque woman, the first born of the Six, clad in a Gold vestment, large feathered wings spreading from her back. The chains that The Darkness tried to imprison her with turned to gold but still clinging to her. Whilst those she could not break still blind her to this day. She fought The Darkness wearing a Black Breastplate forged from The Darkness itself, with LawBringer a sword made from The Light. Portrayals of her are widely available to see, especially if you have ever had a run in with the law, as almost every court has a statue, a painting, or some sort of portrayal of her to denote their authority.
Although many see Geolu's order and "Justice" as a signing light in the darkness and chaos, many others see it as something else entirely. Whilst some see the laws of the Empire being upheld and wrong doers being punished, others see the abuse of power. Where some see Nobility, honour, and earned wealth, others see tyranny, despotism, and greed; And where some may unwavering belief in the system their opponents see ignorance and pride. And it is true that in stories Geolu is seen as so resolute in the fight against darkness, she herself is blinded to the fact that she is made from both the dark and the light. And nowhere is this darkness shown than in her self righteousness and inability change from her chosen path.
