Time and memory, these are the domains of the Zee god Salt. The flowing currents, the waves that erode even shore lines, change and the flow of time affect us all. Salt is an entity of unknown origin, though it is believed he may exist far to the east, father than any man may dare go.

Storm, Stone, Salt

"'Nearly there,' a zailor mutters. 'King Storm, stay your anger. Queen Stone, preserve our hearts. Salt, tempt us not - '
"'Belay that heathen prattling!" the bo'sun roars."[1]

On the Surface, sailors have always been superstitious people, with tall tales of supernatural entities helping or hindering them on their travels. On the Zee it's no different... but the Zee's superstitions might actually hold some truth, for it is full of things no mortal can possibly comprehend.

The three nameless[2] gods of the Unterzee are commonly called Storm, Stone, and Salt. The Gods' secrets are buried within the icy depths of Frostfound.
