Bhal

Bhal was convinced by Thule to tear open the heavens and allow the Scions into the Vala. She waited until night, when Rukh slept and the sky was dark. When the moons rose she whispered to them, spurring the sisters to squabble over whose light was fairer. Taking the form of a crow, invisible against the blackness, Bhal flew to Rukh and leapt upon the sleeping goddess. Rukh, surprised, could only struggle as the Scions tore holes in the sky and descended on Vala. Rukh and Bhal fought a long while, Rukh taking the form of a blue eagle. Thule had almost seized the heart from Anyu when Urabog emerged from the lower world and sought to wrest the heart for herself. Thule was forced to flee, and with him went the other Scions, who were now pursued by the Old Ones. Anyu hid herself so as to preserve the heart, and without it the world was rendered cold and dead. Denied aid by her fellow Scions. Bhal was torn apart by Rukh and fell bleeding to the snow-swept world. Only Rakith, the last to flee, went to her aid. He took the form of a white wolf and, hidden from his foes, prowled the snowdrifts and located Bhal. He gently picked the goddess up in his mouth and then ran into the heavens, slipping through one of the tears in the sky that even then Rukh was stitching up. Rakith is the only Scion Bhal considers an ally. All others are traitors and her foes. A bitter and spiteful deity, Bhal is associated with freezing weather and lonely, miserable death. She is served by her vengeful erinyes, who guard the goddess' bleak realm of Howling Wastes, also called Everwinter.
