Kalika Aisling was the great-great granddaughter of Yaksha and Avya, who formed the Cults of Shallah and Illuminas in the First Age. When it came time for her to walk the Path of Fate and choose to either serve Shallah or Illuminas, she was instead led by a vision of Aesir, God of War, to create a Cult in His name. She served as His first Prophetess of War. She then left Caanae and joined up with the tribes south of Caanae who opposed the great city, and united them to form the city of Stavenn.
A statue depicting Kalika can be found in the Imperial Complex of Stavenn.
