The Goddess of the Waves was a deity of modest powers, and an even more modest range of influence. She helped fishermen and sailors to find their way home, even through the thickest fog, through the fiercest storms. Now she is dead. There are no stories left to tell about her Queen Stephania was a fierce woman, an unhappy woman. She rose higher than people thought she could. But her triumph had a bitter aftertaste, as it left her ruling over those she despised. Now she is dead. There are no stories left to tell about her. Queen Caramela was raised by a fierce, unhappy woman, and lived under the influence of a deity of modest powers. All she wants is to keep harmful things at a distance, to live for beauty and fun, for things to continue as they are. She won't get her wish. She lives. This is her story.
