N'an-Wang-Mu

Lore

An all-powerful Queen Mother deity that prevails over the Great Southern Plateau region of N'an-xin. The true origins of the N'an-Wang-Mu were lost and supplanted by layer upon layer of legends and half-truths for millennia. The N'an-Wang-Mu wielded mastery over the use of Xian-qi - a primordial source of nature energy that manipulated the essence of space-time, soul energy, and aeriform lightning. She could mass conjure enchanted and supercharged Nephrite Jade that could be fashioned into gears of incredible durability and offensive prowess for her subjects. The most influential and powerful deities in the world of Aimyhr were known as the "Tetrad Arcadia": Zeruiah in the North, Juno-Seto in the East, Tsovinar in the West, and the N'an-Wang-Mu in the South. The cataclysmic Void Rendering initiated by Ensa-Taya threw the world of Aimyhr into utter chaos, however this chaos failed to penetrate N'an-xin, for the Plateaus were inhabited by hordes of equestrian tribes that rode exotic war-bred giant insects that were even capable of flight. There were also secretive warrior monk sects that constructed strongholds in the spine of mountains separating and isolating N'an-xin from the rest of the world. The several Void forces that attempted to invade N'an-xin were defeated and blasted into oblivion by the N'an-Wang-Mu's Xian-qi and her Nephrite Jade-armed vassals. Some scholars speculate that if the warring N'an-xin tribes had ceased their in-fighting and rallied under a single banner committed to militaristic expansionism, then the whole of Aimyhr would have fallen under their rule.
