Shining Stars and Summer Breeze
Shining Stars and Summer Breeze is a play by the Speiryi playwright Nyx Azurril, as part of her Blood of the Conqueror cycle. The play tells the story of Birgit the Thunderbolt, the first daughter of Skaldor and Queen Kirilia. It plays around with the popular legend that Birgit fell in love with the sea, and their children have spread throughout the world. It is a four act tragedy that depicts the romance ending because Birgit needed to go to war (a fictionalized version of the Greenland Sundering), and the sea's quest to find her once more. It is quite popular among half-elves as the main character is perhaps the only half-elf protagonist in popular literature to be portrayed as an Imperial hero. The play is one of the most popular romances in all of Illiria.
