The Leader of the Ladies of Life.  

Wa’Naal is the healthy soil, the rock, the wind; she is the mother of the earth and all that lives upon it. One hears her psalm in birds’ song, in the rustling of leaves from the gentle caress of wind, distant howls, and the whispered chorus of running water. 

Wa’Naal’s holy symbol is the Heart of the World; A cracked heart standing as the pupil in an open eye. Plants grow forth from the broken heart, forming the iris. 

When active on Ithia, A rare or even fantastical event, she is represented by the planet Merribell, a great white marble in the sky larger than either of the remaining moons. When active, it sits in the center of whichever piece of the greater plane one is on. While Merribell is in the sky, fertility rates are greatly magnified for plants, animals, and people. It seems to diminish pain and leave one with strange, warm comfort.  

The True Mother’s divine plane is a small, humble manor house where she runs a boarding home and orphanage for lost souls. The mortal children, planar travelers, and anyone in desperate need might find themselves within her home.   

The True Mother commands several divine artifacts, including the Decanter of Tears, the Veil of the Mother, and the Bonding Pins.  

-The Decanter of Tears is a crystalline decanter filled with white wine. It can mend any wound, cure any disease, resurrect the dead whose souls have not yet been collected, and create life. It is believed this is one of the most powerful of the divine artifacts and is guarded by many Coelestis.  

-The Veil of the Mother is a silk headdress soaked with the tears of the True Mother that seems to radiate positive energy to the wearer. One cannot be affected by adverse magical effects, slowly recover from wounds and fatigue, and protect from foreign influence.  

-The Bonding Pins are a set of gold, silver, and bronze hairpins with various animals. There are ten of each metal, and those who wear one can feel, hear, and deeply understand anyone else where one. These have been lost to the mortal coil.  

Wa’Naal has many artifacts from the diverse worshipers, the elves. Several are the Crowns of the First, The Staves of the Twin Towers, The Heart of the Mother, The Matron’s Shield, and The Gloves of the Mother.  

Wa’Naal views the Elk, Rowan, and Hawthorne as sacred. 

Wa’Naal is the perfect elven matron, taking on traits from each of the original five elven kinds. She has long straight hair, a face scarred by constant tears, long ears, and bright eyes like the joy of one’s first child. She wears plain, unadorned clothing bound at the waist in vines of ivy. A pomegranate sits at the front as the only ornament.  

Wa’Naal is patient, quiet, ever watching, and present. A mother who leads her children to strive without interference, but you will always know mother is there. She is the hope in elven hearts, the dream to strive for, the hope that tomorrow will come and be better than yesterday.  

Wa’Naal grants her divine servants basic healing magic, fertility powers for plants, animals, and elves, magic to ease pregnancy pains, sanitize surfaces, and help safely deliver babies. Her clerics excel at creating potions to ease childbirth and teething, and specialize in treating diseases of the mother and baby. 

Wa’Naal has no holidays; every day is a blessed thing, every breath a prayer. 

Wa’Naal is worshipped once a week on Revensday in large gatherings of women who celebrate new mothers, share advice, and give them time to worship Wa’Naal in their own ways. Male worshippers of Wa’Naal pray at household shrines while caring for ho 

Wa’Naal holds sacred rites of parenthood, birth, and the first words and steps of children. Children who can speak and walk are presented to congregations and baptized in sacred waters as they survive and ascend through life. Birth rites include the giving of names, bathing in the blessed waters, and presentation to the community.  

Wa’Naal does not accept physical things as sacrifice. She seeks the immaterial, the offered hand to a fallen stranger, the gift of food to the hungry, the sweat of the brow towards bettering the community or helping another, and the fasting and thus sparing the lives of plants and animals.
