Summary

Out of all the most improbable of possibilities, a genuine miracle happens in the desert town of Starfall. The combined wishes of the people living there join together to resonate loud enough that a god is born from their long-seated desires.

This fledgling god follows her instinct to grant as many wishes as feasibly possible in a growing bid to quiet the ever ceaseless hunger in the air of cravings. It is here where she flourishes at the open air bazaar full of spice traders and exotic dancers in this hidden gem buried under a sea of sand.

However, the surface of the water begins to ripple and a far more unpleasant image begins to take form underneath the once clear waves. As she grows out of her naive view of the world, she sees all of the darkest parts of the enigmatic city. Time passes and she begins to unravel the sinister foundation which the city has been built upon and she has to make a decision about what kind of god she is going to become. Will she be a complacent accomplice, a submissive doll, or wrathful avenger?

Each new droplet only deepens the pool of blood under the thin sprinkling of sand that tries to hide its true nature. And in this fatalistic town the sands are all stained a deep red.
