Biography
The Burrower Below
"You dream of falling. It's a common dream, here. The fogs that bedevil the High Wilderness are thick about you, and through them, below, you see something stir. A beast. A behemoth. Almost a dragon; almost a whale; almost a continent. It gnaws on the roots of heaven, and all the fogs of the Wilderness are its steaming breath. Its maw opens, wide as the gulf between stars."
"You discover a stoker angrily defacing the engine's bible. He claims that here in the heavens, there are more pertinent gods than that of King James. Immediately, he launches into a sermon about the Burrower Below: the wyrm-mother, general-progenitrix of the Devourers of Days, who are called the Aeginae. "She tunnelled the paths across the sky! Every transit is a trespass! We must give praise!"
The Burrower Below is the mother of all dragons, such as Storm or the Silent Saint. She governs the lower regions of the High Wilderness and the "forgotten paths of the sky", such as the Avid Horizon and the regions of space that are occupied by the transit relays. Frequent uses of said relays might displease the Burrower.
The Burrower is associated with promises. She despises skyfarers who broke promises or oaths, especially those made in her name. Those who anger her will have their souls marked for taking, and will be troubled by unusually thick fogs called "the Burrower's Breath" (which may or may not be her actual breath).
Like her progeny, the Burrower eats time: not just the mined geodes of Hours, but also a person's remaining Hours of life. To bargain with the Burrower, a Sky-Captain must sacrifice either a geode of Hours, or several of their oldest crew.
