Mystina, that's what they called her, its what they had been calling her for eons now.
Their praise hardly grew old, but it was growing ever more difficult for her to make the same claim. She had been alive for ages now, had seen monarchs rise and fall one after the other, had watched dragons live and change over the course of a thousand lifetimes, and she could feel that ache deep within her bones. It was a good life, a life filled with watching and recording the events of history from the eyes of one outside of it all, but she could feel herself finally reaching an end. Was that all there was to it? To her very
existence? She watches for a time, then her body falls apart and she passes, never to see another story play out again?
It is a difficult thing to accept,
death, but it was something she had seen play out time and time again. Now it was her turn.
She couldn't accept her death, not after she had lived for so long, not after she had seen so much. She was dying, that much was undeniable, but she was not yet within death's cold embrace, she still had time.
While there was still air in her lungs she would speak, she would share the stories she had been collecting since her hatching. Once she might have been a god but now she was but a humble librarian and storyteller, with a vast collection of tales to share to any who wished to read. Her collection would be available to all who dared to venture into her halls, all she ask is that they add a story of their own before they leave and tell others of that ancient trove of books once they have left.
Even when death would claim her, she would continue on in a way, that much she knew, with her library and the countless lives she touched. Once that final breath left her lungs she would carry on through the pages of the books she once wrote, she would breathe again in each careful word whispered among the walls of her collection. The reaper would take her some day soon, but a part of her would always live on, just as those dragons she had once observed still lived within the same stories she now shared.

tldr; funky
sort of god who makes a big library and tries to live on in death via story telling
