Rythia, First Child of Vilorlith
by The Reason Why
A figure lost to history. A great hero, by her Mother's side until the very end. Considered to be the greatest Caster to have ever existed in all known history. Her voice was second to none besides the Great Mother herself, an ability to command reality, sound and frequency with the power of a god. They were the shining symbol against the tide of War, Vilorlith always by their side.
Even when they knew the truth, they never left her side. Even when they knew it was lost, they endured.

Personal history
She was the first to breathe, the first child to take in the Song and sing back to it. While she may not have been the first literal Child of Vilorlith she was the first to extend her understanding of the forces they felt in Namix to be aware of Vilorlith to her full extent. She was at one point the High Matriarch of The Cradle, the Brownie homeworld, their original birthplace. The planet where they first appeared in that grand symphony that the Great Mother played.
Her life, at least to her was meaningless after she had first reached out into the formless eternity, before the gods had given themselves names, before they had taken forms to walk among their children, before the Children understood what they were. Her mind, her song, had reached out to the entity that she named, Vilorlith. While the Great Mother had always existed, and was the primal force to drive the birth of her people from the song that emanated from her and all things she had made, she was a formless god then. Felt in the air, the wind, the brush of rain against the skin. Seen peering down at her creations from the stars above, from the moons that traveled eternal around her Cradle.
It was this moment, held so close, held at a point in singularity, that Vilorlith opened her eyes. Rythia stared back at the stars and smiled, reaching out and held the hand of a god. Aware, yet absent. Omniscient, yet ignorant to her children. Both the song and the one to hear it, Rythia spoke to her goddess like the Mother she was, and brought forth Vilorlith into the comprehending minds of the Mortal worlds. The id and the ego, the understanding that the unknowable was their first contact.
Their goddess, their one, their all, their creator and destroyer, their light and dark asked Rythia but one question. A wordless whisper, a prayer to not a god but the mortal soul. With Rythia's answer, so too did the divine form of Vilorlith materialize into being. A crack in an endless sea, a shard of sky, a dark light, did the Great Mother embrace her Children for the first time. "Well done, you have reached the first step we hoped our babes would take."
Personality Characteristics
Representation & Legacy
Rythia was to the War as was to the surety of the rising sun. A constant, a simple confidence that all would be well. Powerful in her own right, one of the Fledgling gods next to his bothers Anlyth, First Son of Syn, Taneth The Navigator and Y'vitol. But, in the end she fell along side Vilorlith.
Legends are rooted in the memory of the people, the people lost, the people now, and the people of the future. Some say he lived on, some say she became something knew. Some say they led her people into a dangerous and strange new world. Some memories are ancient, still remaining just in a different form. Deep in the memory of the Goblins of the Skullbrood Clan, in their holy books, granted to them by the Great Father Bhal. Rythia was the name of their First Priestess.
