===== Domain =====

The Mother, often called the Mother of All, is the creator deity who dreamed the world into existence and grew it within her own body. Her primary affinity is fertility, love, and harmony, which defines the natural order of the [[:skyss:places:osnines|Continent of Osnines]]. In the first days, she shaped the foundations of the world and gave birth to the first life forms, the [[:skyss:chars:trolls|Trolls]], whom she fed with her own milk to give them strength. She is the source of all greenery, forests, and animals, having dreamed them into reality while the trolls worked to build her home. Her domain ensures that life continues and that different creatures can live together in a state of balance.

===== Followers =====

Followers of the Mother are most often those who deal with the start of life or the care of the land. This includes mothers, midwives, and healers who look to her for safe births and the health of children. Because she created the first crops and livestock, those who perform the work of farming and herding are also devoted to her, praying for the fertility of their fields and animals. People who seek to resolve conflict and restore harmony to their families or communities also follow her teachings, as she represents the love that binds her divine household together.

===== Celebrations/Observances =====

Ordinary folk celebrate the Mother through simple daily acts of gratitude for their food and family. During the birth of children or the arrival of new livestock in the spring, it is common to offer a cup of fresh milk or a loaf of bread as a sign of respect for her role as the nurturer of all things. Her name is frequently invoked during weddings to ensure a fruitful and peaceful marriage. Unlike her daughter [[:skyss:pantheon:malfin|Malfin]], who is celebrated during the dark of the moon, the Mother is often thanked during the height of the day when the sun, created by her daughter [[:skyss:pantheon:aeolf|Aeolf]], warms the life she created.

===== The Mysteries of the Mother =====

Those initiated into the higher mysteries of the Mother focus on the sacred act of creation and the maintenance of the world's original harmony. They study the ancient sagas of the first days to understand how the Mother used her divine will to shape reality from her dreams. Initiates are often skilled in healing arts that go beyond simple medicine, using their connection to her life-giving power to mend deep wounds. They also act as senior arbiters in social disagreements, using the Mother's affinity for harmony to bring people back into a state of peace. Many high-grade initiates choose a life of service to the community, mirroring the Mother's own care for her children.
