Meyno is said to be the oldest living stone giantess, although no
sign of her has been seen for some time. She was the matriarch of
the giant tribes of Stone Valley, and had twin sons called Khaarne
and Illoke. Where Khaarne was neutral, Illoke
was hateful and evil.
The giants had a matriarchal society, worshipping and venerating
the chief matriarch as a goddess. The valley flourished under Meyno’s
hand, becoming lush and green. She was a kind and generous matriarch,
and well-loved by all save the faction who was tired of female rule.
This faction raised a shaman to their ends, then sought Meyno’s
darker son for assistance.
The shaman went into the tribes to kill Meyno and place Illoke
in the seat of power. Meyno’s faithful priestess battled this
shaman, and in the force of their dueling, the ground cracked open.
Upon the Priestess’ defeat, the shaman cast Meyno into the
crack in the ground, entombing her forever.
Meyno’s form is that of a large stone giantess. In manner,
she is powerful, kind, generous and primitive. She has no known
symbol, as the giants are a simple people who do not hold with this
kind of symbolism.
