Mythology
Vaisha is the daughter of the stormfather Shahra and his sister-wife Sonya. She is the second eldest, after Casir. Both her brothers, Casir and Ossur, desired her, but she was betrothed to Ossur, whom she always preferred. When Casir attempted to take her by force, she struck him down with magic in a violent clash that ended up sterilizing him.
When Casir murdered Ossur, he specifically came at a time when Vaisha was away, as he feared Vaisha's power; he knew he could not overpower both Ossur and Vaisha together.
Afterwards, when Casir scattered Ossur's remains to the four corners of the earth, Vaisha collected them and reconstructed his body. When finally he was sewn together, she mounted him and made herself pregnant by his corpse, and then "gave birth" by breathing life back into his body. Her brother-husband was thus reborn as their son, Mishra.
When Mishra made his intent to challenge his uncle Casir clear, Vaisha was warned by the Black God Yacha that Mishra would be killed. Still, she allowed him to go. He was indeed killed, but then death itself was reversed, and he returned to life and killed Casir in a second struggle. Finally he was crowned the divine king of the earth. Vaisha returned to Ogissia as queen and queen mother.
Relationships
Vaisha detests Casir and loves Ossur and Mishra. Vaisha has respect for her forefather, Ra.
