Reupload of one of my earliest art pieces because I've finally updated the lore for Camilla. I've been meaning to do this for awhile now with most of my early lore. I still dunno if I'd call myself the best at writing. But I'm a million times better than I was then. The art was made by missqueenshi on bluesky who you can find linked here https://bsky.app/profile/missqueenshi.bsky.social

But for now. Enjoy the new and vastly improved lore~

Long ago. Long before the age of man. Long before the stars graced the sky. Gods and goddesses were once the only things that graced the universe. The vast expanse of nothingness being slowly shaped and molded by their grace. While Camilla isn't as old as the universe. She too can see into the primordial fabric of existence. Camilla was born in the Amazon rainforest. A goddess of flame formed with the desire to protect the forest and all its inhabitants known as the Boitatá. Her life was peaceful there in the rainforest. A Titanic snake taking care of all that would do the rainforest harm.

But as the centuries went by she eventually saw something else. Humans. The first creatures on the earth with the intelligence fit to speak. Still she did not stray from her path. Finding that she had to deal with humans far more often than the other wildlife. Eventually finding the mortals had built a temple for her. And deciding to stop in. She was a graceful goddess. Happily serving the adorable mortals who gave her tribute. Helping them improve themselves with her divine blessings. But as the years went on and humanity began to distance itself from magic. She too felt it would be better if she left her temple to live away from humans. Even if they could never truly harm her.

During this period she took on a human form and decided to travel the world. Never able to truly rid herself of her thick Portuguese accent. It was several hundred years before she found someone who could see through her disguise. Miyuki. As a kitsune she knew more than a thing or two about illusions. And after an invitation to her home and a long chat about the goddesses aspirations in life. It was decided that she would stay in the manor as a live in personal fitness trainer. After all. Camilla always enjoyed watching mortals doing their best to improve. And she also enjoyed a good daily workout. So it simply made sense for them.

She now takes the form of her old self. Albeit several stories smaller than her true height standing at only a measly 13 feet to her old 50. Not that she minded of course. However even in this form it's hard to eliminate her natural heat. Though odd for a serpent. Her body was warm like a heated blanket. Her heat only getting warmer and more intense as she works out or finds herself within the heat of passion. Going as far as reaching the temperature of hot lava. However her heat is incapable of burning. Mortals who find themselves in her embrace saying that the experience was quite pleasant.

So if you ever find yourself within the Boitatás realm. Don't be afraid to approach. Just make sure to bring plenty of water~
