. The stories depict the destruction of her home, creations, and family, and her subsequent exodus from her homeland to an unspecified mountain. These events also parallel the events depicted in several murals found across the Primeval Ruins.

The Maraketh and the Winter of the World

After leaving her mountain refuge, Ahkeli met surviving tribespeople of the Maraketh. Forming an alliance, they drove back hordes of Lightless invading the Vastiri Plains utilizing "relics of power" related to the Three Sisters.[1]

Death and legacy

According to Kalandra, Ahkeli took refuge at the Lake of Kalandra at some point - "The Clayshaper once took refuge here... for a time." - but the exact time frame of this event is unknown.

The Gilded Abyss Scarab serves as an epitaph for her death and role in the Winter of the World. Ahkeli is referred to as "Honoured Founder" in reference to the Order of the Djinn, a collective known to immortalize their notable members' stories through scarabs.

The line "The fate of your people will never befall another." is also a reference to the fall of the primeval civilization, and relates to the mission of the Order of the Djinn in "protecting the people of Wraeclast from themselves".
