## Overview

Hayat is the supreme deity in River Valley Mythology. She is the goddess of creation and destruction, because everything came from her and everything will come back to her. She is the Lady of Life and Death, she gives life and she takes life.

Even though it was chaos itself, she loved all of her creations, so she became the goddess of order and since then maintains order in the Universe, preventing chaos from reigning again, but in the End Times, she will relinquish that role and destroy everything with hers destructive and chaotic powers. She is the Supreme Judge, she judges the souls of the dead and defines their place in the River Valley's afterlife. She sends good souls to Zerua (Heaven), souls that are not so good to Kathartirio (Purgatory), bad souls to Peklo (Hell), evil sorceres to Anvaver, and neutral souls to Minjord (Limbo).

## Appearance

Hayat's true form can only be seen by very powerful cosmic entities such as the Zaskaban. It is described as a colossal humanoid figure, which emanates a brilliant light that blinds lower beings. Hayat's form is composed of threads of light that intertwine, creating an intricate structure that spans the universe.

When interacting with humanity, Hayat manifests as a white woman of tall stature, wearing black clothes, earrings and hair stuck. When in her demonic face, she manifests two horns on her head, her skin turns gray, her eyes yellow and her sharp and long nails.

## Personality

Even among other primordials, Hayat's appearance is somewhat special as she actually has too different faces. Her angelic face that is devoid of any defects and only appears to benefactors and her demonic face that is devoid of any quality and only appears to evildoers.

Although she is very difficult to anger, when angered she also unlocks her demonic face, which makes Hayat become cold, sadistic, manipulative and ruthless, however it is even more difficult to make her lose control of her anger, and she also is willing to forgive and peacefully resolve her issues with the source of her anger.
