Rumana

Rumana , also known as the Goddess of Thunder, was the guardian deity of Walsmeuse Island. She was responsible for the island's destruction and the death of all its citizens, as well as the destruction of Hell's Reach. She was eventually killed by Lady Luxianna and sealed away at Hell's Reach. The remnants of her power formed or at least summoned the Thunder Manifestation.

=== Personality ===
Rumana was prideful, haughty, and often temperamental. A divine being who existed since before humans arrived on Walsmeuse Island. She thought of humans no differently than the other animals inhabiting the world. Because her life was much longer than a human's, she considered individual humans not worth remembering and generally was indifferent to the ones that worshipped her. The only exception to this was Lucas, who attempted to befriend Rumana during their first meeting with his song on the harp, which captivated her to meet the source of the sound. He subsequently gave her a name, and while she appeared to act indifferent to him, she had sought to meet him again. This act of purity touched Rumana and she remembered him long after her own death.
As a storm goddess, Rumana was also extremely vengeful. Upon learning of Lucas's death at the hands of his tribe living on Walsmeuse Island, she flew into a ferocious rage and massacred them. Her grief and vengeance was so abundant that these residual emotions resulted in the creation of two Thunder Manifestations following her demise at the hands of the Goddess of Light, Luxianna.

=== History ===
Rumana was an entity that lived long ago. Her age is not known, but she was given a name by "her," although she had forgotten both it and the person who gave her the name.
Sometime long ago, an ancient tribe living in Walsmeuse Island worshipped Rumana. Simultaneously fearful of her and thankful for her blessings, they chose shamans to offer blood sacrifices for protection and blessings. They would also interpret any of her actions as divine revelations and used an amethyst hourglass to predict her arrival and hold a festival when she arrived. The tribe believed that she placed a dense fog to "protect" them from the "sea of ashes" outside the island.
However, she paid no attention to them, seeing them as no different from animals and living a short life. One day a young boy's song broke through the clouds and captivated her. She landed next to the boy and the two talked briefly. The boy introduced himself as Lucas and decided to give her the name "Rumana". Lucas promised to play the harp to Rumana again and they departed.
Unfortunately, when Rumana returned, she saw the boy dead and his blood within the sacrificial cup. While Lucas thought that his sacrifice was for the good of the tribe, she only saw the murder of an innocent and the breaking of a promise. Driven mad from rage and sorrow, she razed the entire mountain with lightning, killing everyone in the tribe to avenge the boy. She left the mountain but placed a curse on the land that would only be lifted when she could hear his song once more.
=== Death ===
Years later, Rumana was hunted down as a monster and killed by Lady Luxianna for being "a menace to the citizens of this universe". The remnants of her power were sealed within the Heart of the True Hell's Reach, where they formed a coagulation of regret.
Several thousand years later, The tribe known as the Taurtus released the barrier, unleashing the Thunder Manifestation upon the Four True Enlightened's ships and armies, unintentionally destroying, fragmenting, and corrupting Hell's Reach to a complete inhospitable wasteland. The releasing of the barrier swept several hundred ships far out to sea, with a particular fleet becoming stranding at the remote continent of Hyybyythia. Another Thunder Manifestation appeared in the clearing of where Rumana first met Lucas, born from her rage, sorrow, and regret, after Katelynn brought Lucas back to the location where he was sacrificed. However, now knowing the truth, Lucas went to Hell's Reach and played the harp to the Thunder Manifestation. With the promise they made now fulfilled, another feather manifested in front of Lucas, a sign that even in death, Rumana had heard his song once more and lifted the curse on the island. Finally at peace knowing that Lucas fulfilled his promise. Rumana and Lucas, both join together as one to travel along with Katelynn as they promised she would do for Lucas, since he never left the island.
