Past
Galáteia was a princess from the ancient Propoetides civilisation and the imperial line of Mages-Kings that was ruling over Amathus and the empire of Kýpros. After her death, her body was cremated and her soul captured in a soul jars accorded to the ancient customs. Both the funeral urn and the soul jar were placed in the imperial mausoleum.New life
Three thousand years later, she wakes up in a new artificial body made to look like what modern people think the ancient family's appearance was, with the addition of wings to fit in with the new City of a Thousand Towers. She has no memory and only knows her soul is from a member of the imperial family because of the boasting of her new "mistress". Her will is bound to that woman's, and she is unable to go against her orders. And those are all about assassinating rival Merchants-Mages and risking her new life in the process, something Galáteia really does not relish. Galáteia instinctively remembers how to use magic at an extremely high level, although she quickly realises that her method is slightly different from the modern one. She hides this, and also pretends that she does not truly remember the full width of the mysterious magics held by the imperial family, despite sometimes getting some vague feelings and intuitions concerning them. Because memory or no memory, her instincts are all about survival and freedom. And she knows that, sooner or later in her assassin outings, she is going to run against defences too strong for her to easily surmount with the frontal assault she is forced to do. She needs to remember who she is and the full scope of her magical skills. She needs to brave the dangerous ruins of the imperial mausoleum to find answers. Her time is running out...Table of Contents
