History
Aala was the sea goddess of Bal-Sagoth.
When Kyrie, daughter of Rane the Reaver was found on the shore, she was believed to be Aala by the natives, as she had redhair like Aala.
Kyrie was worshiped as Aala, and learned to use that belief for her own purpose, until high priest Gothan had her exiled and those faithful to her slaughtered.[1]
Notes
- A-ala was created by Robert E. Howard in the Turlogh Dubh O'Brien and Cthulhu Mythos story "The Gods of Bal-Sagoth" (Weird Tales; October, 1931), adapted by Marvel Comics in Conan the Barbarian #17 and #18 (August and September, 1972), written by Roy Thomas and penciled by Gil Kane, in which she was renamed Aala.
- Unlike other gods of Bal-Sagoth, it is unknown if Aala actually existed.
