Overview:
Standing fully two meters tall and impressively built, the origins of the lawgiver known as Beautiful Tsunami stem not from some distant, faraway place away from Dragonblooded eyes, but ironically from within the Realm's legions themselves. Formerly a soldier stationed in the Scarlet Empire's satrapy and popular vacation of spot of An-Teng, by all military accounts she was considered an excellent mortal soldier. It was thus right under the eyes of the Terrestrials that what would become an anathema trained, fought, and flourished.

She was actually set to receive a promotion to the position of [i]fang[/i] Sargeant when a large Lintha raiding force suddenly struck the coastal town Tsunami's Wing had been ordered to garrison managed to totally take them by surprise. The attack left them in disarray for the first few parts of the battle, and although after getting reorganized Tsunami's force fought well, by then it had been far too late: the Realm forces were decimated, and the Lintha were still converging in.

It was at that moment that Tsunami would make a fateful decision. A distress signal had managed to be brought out and reinforcements were coming, but they would arrive too late to save the day. Meanwhile there were still civilians in the town, people that would be at the mercy of the Lintha should the Wing retreat or fall. Knowing that outside help would not be forthcoming, she rounded up what volunteers she could, men and women from the various remnants of the various talons and fangs that had been nearly destroyed during the earlier fighting, and reported to her commander that they would stay and hold off the pirates while the rest of the unit helped the civilians evacuate the town. The commander agreed, and the ragtag volunteer force would fight almost to the last person in order to facilitate the retreat.

Details from the few remaining survivors about their informal leader are somewhat hazy. Though all of them share the fact that she had almost fought like a woman possessed, the only other detail that could be discernable from their testimonials is that somewhat during the middle of the battle, the woman somehow managed to acquire a sort of glowing yellow aura around her. Indeed, outside observers from outside of the city confirm that light, and there are rumors circulating around that the woman may have actually become an anathema during the fight. Further supporting that theory is when relief forces finally did arrive, and all the wounded(practically the entire group) and dead were accounted for, it was she who remained missing.

In the coming weeks after the battle, several eyewitness reports would surface of a certain woman matching the missing soldier's description in the An-Teng area, though this figure is clad in strange armor of a bright gold gold color matching that of the anathema of old. Normally the Wyld Hunt would attempt investigate the issue, but thanks to the Empress' disappearance and more pressing issues elsewhere, by the time resources could be allocated to finding this possible Anathema, the reports had long tapered off. For all intents and purposes, the Realm has completely lost track of the heroine of the Lintha raid-turned Anathema.
