Personal history
Aja came into existence shortly after Amarie, and brought light into existence with him. He created for himself the city of the sun, and he and Alara were wed in the early days of time when there were no nights. They were happy together for a time, and Aja welcomed all the gods to his court, until Morre, the god of night and dreams came to his palace and lulled the king to sleep with his soft voice. while he slept, darkness crept over the world, and with it, winter. The Great River froze, and the earth slept. Alara tended to her husband, but she grew lonely, and sought the company of Lan. She and Lan began an affair. When Aja woke, he knew nothing of this, because he could not comprehend disobedience. Alara had a daughter, and soon after mortals were born, Lan returned to steal fire from Aja. Aja was enraged and burned Lan, so that he fell, his wings on fire, to the earth, never to return.
