Once she was just a young girl unknowing to the harshness of the world who revered her elders, and heeded their tales of coiling serpent monsters in the seas, and the trees that watched, now a hardened captain of the seas. Nymea was a fisherwoman's daughter, who only ever knew her mother, and the sense of duty that called her to take up a job at the wharf when she grew old and weary. After her death, she grew numb to the world, and only found purpose again in the stolen ship she commandeered at the docks, and her faithful pirate crew.

Alodale, her first home, was a land of stepping stones and ever-present autumn, of trees of birch with leaves ever *huen shades of yellow and scorching red, and thousands of eyes staring from the whorls in the bark, in a pattern only nature knew how to master. Where the land to the north was a place of eternal ice and winter, and the rolling hills and forest of Aresdon heralded days of everlasting spring, and the desert island of Erast was a place of unending summer where snow would never dare to fall, even if called forth by magic, Alodale was autumn, an autumn as familiar and comforting to her as the scent of salt in the breeze, and fish being sold in the markets.
Mother had always told her autumn was a sign of the time passing, of the earth readying herself for death before being reborn again in the spring after winter's blanketed death faded away. The new life born in the last spring had withered with age, like the cracks in her mother's smile, it's time now passed, it's aged earthen bones laying it's leaves and petals to rest, to lay in a blanket over where it's new children would grow when spring found it's way back again. Autumn was a beginning of a rebirth, a necessary death so that life may begin again strong and anew, a phoenix turning itself to ash. Life died in autumn, and laid it's weary boughs and limbs to rest so that the world could go on. The earth may be old and crumbling, readying herself to be buried in winter so that her old children may finally rest, but time under the autumn moon gave it a different kind of beauty. A beauty she saw and cherished, and a taste of comfort, of familiarity, of warmth, of memory, of home.
To her, autumn was the taste of salt on the breeze, the colors of home, the salt tinted wind rippling through her hair and placing drifting kisses upon her fur. Autumn was the graying in her mother's fur, the weariness creeping into her eyes as the years past by, growing stronger with each new year carved into the stones of time. Autumn was the smiling light in her eyes, the shake in her grasp as her strength faded with age. Autumn was the splash of fish leaping from the sea, the ripples they cast, and the glimmering scales set free. Autumn was the golden weeds of the sea clinging to the ancient anchors of harbor boats as they were raised from the water, and the droplets dripping down. Autumn was distant views of islands across a foggy ocean, and stepping stones from the rocky shore, cracks of broken shells and dried seaweed mixed in by Mother Nature's expert hand.
Autumn was home, her mother, times and faded memories long since past.
Autumn was a place to which she could always return, no matter how far she strayed, because autumn would always come back.
