《Ranger of the North》Interlude 1: Prosperia, the Deity of Life
Advertisement
Worship of the goddess Prosperia has spread from time immemorial. Her cult is the most widespread in all the kingdoms with temples found in every major city. The elves of Illyria consider Her their patron, but every race honours the goddess of Nature. With dominion over vitality and vegetation magic, She is a goddess of harvest and fertility, a guardian of farmers and gardeners, and a patroness of love and marriage. Prosperia is worshiped in most Northern countries, primarily by the people closely connected with nature, like farmers, lumbermen, or rangers.
Prosperia is as transient as nature. She takes on numerous forms but the most recognizable ones are the Maiden, the visage of beauty and youth; guarding young girls, encouraging love, and blessing marriages.
The Mother, protectress of women pregnant or in childbirth; women of every race, age, occupation, or social position have esteem for her.
And the wrinkled Crone; representing the maturity and wisdom that come with age. She provides Her voice to selected Oracles to disseminate divine knowledge amongst the masses and forewarn against coming danger.
The church of Prosperia has large and small sanctuaries spread throughout Earth providing shelter to all women in need. They also welcome female orphans who train as handmaidens of the Goddess. The adepts learn arithmetic, biology, botany, medicine, and the healing arts, they are also taught general knowledge of the world. After being admitted into the priesthood, young priestesses receive new robes of green and tasks from the abbess; usually in service of the rural community or one of the many temples spread across the land. Many travel around the world as midwives or healers specialized in illnesses of women and children, as wandering doctors, teachers, and governesses. Their services are in great demand by the armies of all kingdoms but priestesses of Prosperia take a vow of pacifism and neutrality. They refuse to take sides in any conflict and treat all injured with equality and kindness.

The Wolven Spire located in Atilan, capital of the north human Eidunn Empire is said to be the creation of the Goddess. It provides a permanent conduit to her Dominion allowing easier access to Nature Magic. Many elves travel from their home continent of Illyria braving the journey across the Frozen Gulf to undertake the Initiation. Successful trial-takers of the Spire obtain the Ranger, Wood-Mage, Druid, and their variant Blessings.

I've been made aware that the discord link in my post-chapter plug is dead. Use this one until I fix it. Discord "The War of Fog is over. Every major city is under occupation. Now we prepare to take back our home." - Unknown Soldier The world's great heroes have slaughtered one another for the ideals of their countries, but the world keeps moving. The industrious nation of Ikesia lays still smoldering from the nigh-apocalyptic War of Fog, yet it stubbornly forges onward, shielded from further invasion by the impenetrable Blackwall. Its leader - the Sage of Fog - has disappeared, yet his influence is still felt everywhere, his plans and contingencies still in motion - even the Blackwall is said to be his last, desperate creation. New heroes have begun rising from the war of fog, and there is more need for them than ever. A towering foreigner has emerged from the desolate Exclusion Zone. She strides into the war-torn country without the intent to pick sides, but is soon forced to do so when the machinations of malevolent others collide with her own ego.

Storm
The Storm started six months ago, and no one knows where it came from. All they know is it hasn't stopped for a single day, and you better follow the one rule: Don't go out in the rain. Hiding in the broken building of her old high-school, seventeen-year-old Marylou is one of the few to have survived this far. She doesn't believe in the Ghosts -- shapeless creatures said to roam under the rain outside -- but, to be fair, she doesn't really believe in anything except booze and the unconditioned love of her ball python snake, Evil Noodle. Chance brings Marylou together with Amy, a mysterious girl with an even more mysterious past, and Dean and Ray, two young men running what they call 'the last pizza place in California'. As the Storm rages on stronger by the day, the foursome will have to make a choice: keep hiding under roof after roof, waiting for starvation, or set out to the road and face whatever hides out there, under the Storm.
