The '''Scales Constellation''' is a constellation sacred to [[Miramar]], Goddess of Justice. When Slith imprisoned Her upon [[Miranus]] and began sapping away her [[essence]], the stars of this constellation began to wink out one by one. When Her essence was finally restored, the stars reclaimed their former glory in the heavens.
The '''Scales Constellation''' is a gathering of stars sacred to [[Miramar]], Goddess of Justice.
 
Years after the close of the [[Chaos Wars]], Miramar was approached by a prophet named [[Ric'sua]] who told Her of a vision of the future that depicted the events of [[Death's Heart]] and the subsequent self-sacrifice of [[Deucalion]]. With this foreknowledge in mind, She placed a tablet with Ric'sua's prophecy within a sealed altar in [[Delos]], which at the time was the site of the [[Chrysalis Basilica]] and seat of the [[Church]]. As She was still burdened by having had to judge Her brethren [[Agatheis]], [[Khalas]], and [[Lorielan]], She began to rest within the [[Garden of the Gods|Garden]] until such a time that She was needed.
 
Millennia later, the dispersal of Deucalion's [[Divine essence|essence]] following His sacrifice proved the catalyst that caused Miramar's awakening. [[Sartan]], sensing Miramar's return and with it Her realm of justice, twisted and burned Her holy scales and cast them across the continent. One was claimed by [[Geh'shya]], the black [[Lesser dragons|dragon]] of [[Belladona]], while the other was hidden by [[Lachesis]], once-ally of the [[Tsol'teth]].
 
Lady [[Aurora]] sent a vision to Her [[priest]]ess [[Dawn]], who instructed a mortal by the name of Crius to head to Delos. As he arrived there, the prophecy was fulfilled and the wall crumbled, revealing Miramar to the gathered Crius, [[Maran La'saen|Maran]], Vertigo, and Taranis. The adventurers went on to recover the holy scales, whereupon Miramar placed them in the celestial vault as an eternal reminder of the return of Justice.
 
Years later, when Prince [[Slith]], Lord of the Undead Legions imprisoned Miramar upon [[Miranus]] and began sapping away Her essence, the stars of this constellation began to wink out one by one. When Her essence was finally restored, the stars reclaimed their former glory in the heavens.
