Line 6:

Xay¹¹ was born into a technological world much like early 21st-century Earth. She gained wide appeal within the Angaian [what age?] xenharmonic community for her compositions, approach to xenharmony, and various other accomplishments. Xay¹¹ was murdered at the age of 30.

== Growth of the ~~Lady~~ Xay¹¹ cult ==

== Growth of the Queen Xay¹¹ cult ==

After Xay¹¹'s death, climate change caused most of the existing Internet infrastructure to submerge underwater, causing most data online to be lost. Thus historical sources from her lifetime are scant, and most available sources are by her acquaintances relying on their memory (they agree that she was extraordinarily creative and funny). Many of these people apparently had supernatural experiences involving her; she appeared to them as a vengeful ghost.

Line 12:

== Divine attributes ==

~~Lady~~ Xay¹¹ is a goddess of creativity, wisdom, and craftiness. Her allegedly unjust death led to her being regarded as a deity of justice able to avenge other victims of injustices (according to post-apocalyptic Thean beliefs, such a death in addition to being a great figure during one's lifetime boosts one's spirit's power as a posthumous god). In fact, she is worshipped by both powers that be (such as police and entrepreneurs) and dissidents in Thean society.

Queen Xay¹¹ is a goddess of creativity, wisdom, and craftiness. Her allegedly unjust death led to her being regarded as a deity of justice able to avenge other victims of injustices (according to post-apocalyptic Thean beliefs, such a death in addition to being a great figure during one's lifetime boosts one's spirit's power as a posthumous god). In fact, she is worshipped by both powers that be (such as police and entrepreneurs) and dissidents in Thean society.

== In-universe scholarship ==

The only scholarly consensus about Xay¹¹ is that a woman named Roodh⁵¹ Xay¹¹ existed, that she was a composer and entrepreneur, and that she was murdered or executed. Detailed reconstructions of her life and work are under debate. Due to the dearth of sources from her life, a minority of Angaian historians posit that Xay¹¹ is a purely mythical figure.
