Brenadette is tetchy and temperamental, and perhaps she has earned that reputation. Her eternal duty as preserver of the Cycle of Life keeps her always awake, forever bound to the realm of the dead. She sacrificed sleep, and perhaps peace, so that the souls of the living could pass on and be reborn.
Worship¶
Her followers are some of the most fervent in Galluvinchia. Their practices are shrouded in mystery, governed by strict rules, and marked by the occasional blood sacrifice. They believe each act of devotion calms a raging storm or draws schools of fish closer to the shore.
The largest abbey dedicated to her stands in Pharoes, a city frequently battered by stormy weather. There, the locals revere her not only as keeper of the dead but also as the Goddess of the Tempest.
Dark faith
Many of her followers see Brenadette as justification for harsh deeds. Gangs, violence, and darker ambitions shelter themselves beneath her name.
Relationships¶
Brenadette fell in love with Panos during their academy years, and together they achieved divinity. She is mother to Aremedia and Morphia. Her endless vigil over the Neverender is the sorrow that Panos still wanders the world hoping to mend.
