[font=sylfaen]Long ago, a young Xinling was discovered to possess an innate talent for magic. Soon after, those with blackened hearts coveted her powers. Xinling and her family went into hiding so she may use her magic without disturbances. She was able to hone her abilities with ease and grew in power each day. As an adult, she she came out of hiding to perform great deeds and help many others grow in their own magical abilities just by being in their presence. It was not long before she was able to ascend to the status of a deity.
After her ascension, Xinling descended upon the mortal world and decided to establish an empire. This empire would have three functions: it would house her worshippers, be a safe place for magicians that shared the same struggles Xinling had in life, and be a place where Xinling could feel safe while on the mortal world. The location Xinling chose to establish her empire in was in the Leviathan Trench so that this haven could be hidden away under the murky waters. Once construction was complete, Xinling chose to name her empire after the rouge gate she saw as she ascended to the heavens as a deity.[/font][/columns]
