"No. I am Skite. We do not heal. We are not reborn. I won myself these years. Now it's over."[1]
Skite is a mysterious kingdom located on the Elder Continent. Not much is known of this place, but most of its inhabitants are covered in deep scars, as they lack the ability to heal or rejuvenate themselves.[2]
A Story
In ages past, the Queen of Skite fell in love with the King of Statues. So she took a hammer and struck him seven times. From the first strike, she made an axe. The second, a sword. From the third, a knife-of-power known as the Knapt. The fourth strike, a stylus. The fifth strike produced an unforgeable seal. The sixth strike only produced a needle. And from the seventh, nothing.
"I love you," she said to the wind.[1]
