Nut, sister and wife to Geb, fled Heliopolis eons ago, when she was forbidden to consort with Geb any longer. Now she maintains a small realm on Elysium, in Belierin, the layer magically sealed off by the guardinals. Though Nut realizes she's still not beyond Ra's reach, she nonetheless finds solace in her solitude.
Her realm is like the starry sky, a dark land where there's no up or down, only the sensation of movement through the night. No corporeal beings live here; the petitioners of the realm are the stars themselves. As Nut draws them to herself, they flare up and then die out entirely.
