The realm of balance, where the death goes.

The Origin of Limm

She was born as a mortal, ordinary person. She was among a few good citizens of the corrupted city at the time of the humanity's worst era. She was special though - Her kindness and forgiveness infused in her heart was strong enough to make the people start to calm, even the aggrassive Luum who met her while looking for medicines. She was the balance the world he needed, just in the wrong position.

Therefore, she sadly passed away - not because of the injustify humans but the collateral damage caused by Lumm's divine power upon her hometown, who led by blindness that also wanted to make the world a better place. With guilt and hard lesson he learned, he revive them, but despite all she received, she forgave.

As such, he gave her the power of light, turning to a goddess. As they ascent back to the sky, her citizens vowed to take care and spread her goodness upon the people to make people lived in peace. They rebuilt the city and became Lumus.

More of a certain good thing can turn bad. The darkness may kill crops but also too much of a light. Limm is someone we should pray for good life, but so do Lumm to look back and take care of ourselves. Every matters have the opposite inside, and that's called balance. And to find the way to achieve the balance, is called harmony.
