Little his known about her but legends about her are spread across the Prime Innerlands. In Stygxx, it is said that to see her once upon the horizon, silhouetted by Lunaghast’s sinister glow, is an omen of impending disaster, twice the death of a lover and thrice only the gods can save them from her pursuit. In Dhûmi, a tale about her talks about a starving girl-child lost in the woods who encountered Volga and was given a bowl of steaming broth. The girl asked her twice to help her hungering family but was denied both times and upon the third request, Volga magically transmuted the girl’s kin into wolves, laughing as they feasted upon the rest of their village.[1b]
