King of Water

This is Nixsa, and his kingdom lies in the depths of the oceans, and the rivers of the earth. He directs and contros the movement of rain, the ebb and flow of the tides, and the instinctive responses upon the earth.

Those who see Nixsa, say he is a swirling, majestic figure of brooding intensity.His hair is long and flowing, touched with the shine of dampened seaweed, and splashed with tentacles of silver and grey.His eyes are luminous droplets, quivering in movement, reflecting the echo of a century of tears, and he spreads around him a cloak, the colour of kelp, edged with white foam from the breakers of the sea.

Nixsa can be as gentle and malleable as a limpid pool, or dancing and light as a cascading river, but he too can raise the breakers of the oceans high up to the heavens, as wild and untamed as an unrelenting storm.

If we catch his glance, we are told his shimmering eyes will return our gaze in shrouded mystery, entrancing and hypnotic, as slowly he draws from deep within us an unknown latent tenderness that sleeps imprinted upon our dreams, and as he speaks we hear the murmur of distant rushing rivers, flowing in his voice. With a haunting echo in his command, Nixsa calls up from the oceans the tiny elemental beings, known as the Undines of his kingdom.They shower in droplets around him; minute, silvery slivers of water; dainty, joyous creatures that dance with the dolphin, and swirl with the mermaids and fish of the sea.
