Niliana, a lovely young woman of Tasur'ke, was once the object of the young sculptor Darius' affections. After Darius built a monument to the Gods at the Garden of Whispers, Sarapis favoured Darius by influencing Niliana's temperment and making her fall in love with the young artist and marry him. Niliana worshipped her husband's creations with such zeal that the Gods Themselves became jealous, so They whispered contradictory messages to the girl and caused her to go insane. In a fit of madness, she threw herself from atop the cliff to her death.
