[You know she almost, almost signed on for that one mission. A guard, surviving, she knew she could handle it. But then when she saw that "desert" thing. she has no idea what a desert is, so today she is at the library researching that, mostly because she really doesn't have much better to do today. She is clearly in a better mood though- all her earrings are in place (one of them she even thinks might be gold) and she she has a shiny nose stud in place. But... as she learns more and looks into these things more-
..Jesu.
She's gotten over being afraid of the sun (somewhat) in Luceti, mostly because of how dreary winter is, but that desert that... she flips open her journal]
Hey, Luceti. Talk to me 'bout the sun. Some of you got tales for it, right? Gotta.
[Feel free to answer her or see her in the library]

As far as mythology goes, there are a variety of deities that represent the sun. The Greeks had Apollo, the Olympian god, and the Titan god, Helios. The Egyptians had Ra, the Japanese had Amaterasu, the sun goddess. Those are probably some of the most well known ones.

We have a friend named Helios. An amusing coincidence. But back on the topic of gods. in some versions, Helios and Apollo have become almost identical. Driving a chariot across the sky to raise the sun and all.
[Voice]
Yeah, why would they have two've the same?
[Voice]
Time, details getting lost or confused. The power writing can have when it's all you have to look back on. But if I remember correctly, Helios is the one generally associated with riding his chariot across the sky.

But back to the sun. Scientifically speaking and relating directly to Earth, it's a star located at the center of the Solar System. The sun provides sunlight, a primary source of energy living creatures need in order to live, whether it's directly or indirectly.

On the other hand, if there's too much sun and not enough water, you can get droughts. Water sources drying out, crops dying, famine. Prolonged exposure to sun can also result in sunburns.
