Lady Kastalia, Goddess of Lakes and Rivers, is the daughter of the Lord Neraeos and the Lady Ourania. In the year 385 AF, the Goddess of the Moon awoke from Her slumber and shed a single tear for the beauty of the vast world. The tear rolled off into the churning waters where it was seemingly forgotten, yet instead of letting it drift through the ocean it was captured by Lord Neraeos and placed within a hidden temple in Riparium for safekeeping. Along with the tear, He sent a trusted priest to tend to its growth. It began to grow into a young Goddess and upon Her birth the rivers of the world became clear of a toxic substance that tainted them. The newly emerged Divine was named 'Kastalia' and was given governance over the lakes and rivers that were once part of Her father's realm.
