Difference between revisions of "Lorielan"

Lorielan is one of the [[Elder Gods]] from the early days of [[Creation]]. She took no realm and was loved by [[Proteus]], leader of the Elder Gods. During the [[War of Humanity]], She plotted with [[Khalas]] and [[Agatheis]] to overthrow Proteus. When Their [[Triumvirate (mythology)|Triumvirate]] failed, Lorielan was sentenced to exile in the [[Crystal Plane]], where She ruled for three millennia as the Jade Empress. In the [[Modern Age]], Lorielan repented of Her sins and was forgiven by [[Sarapis]], Who allowed Her to leave the Crystal Plane. She became the Goddess of Knowledge, later taking on the mantle of Enlightenment.

At some point, the Goddess once again returned to the Crystal Plane and its [[Kx'Khrah]] people. During Her stay there, She became dissatisfied with the neutrality and moral ambiguity of that realm; She no longer wished to merely accumulate knowledge and turned Her focus instead on analysing and using the information She had attained. Her time spent in introspection gave Her a desire to ensure Knowledge was being used to benefit others. This has created a natural alliance between Her ideals and the concepts of Light, Righteousness, and Virtue.

Around the turn of the 7th century the blight of [[Babel]] reached to the crystal realm and Lorielan travelled there to turn it aside for a time. With the rise of [[Bal'met]] and the deaths of her colleagues in 610, Lorielan soon became the last Divine of the [[Te'Serra Alliance]]. A Shallamese summoning ritual in Siorraidh saw Her brief appearance, but their cries for aid against the rogue God fell on deaf ears. Before the supplicants she named Herself Jade Empress once more, renouncing Her ties to them and abandoning the [[Prime Material Plane]] for what many took to be the last time.

She would eventually surprise Sapience with Her return, however, in the year 666AF, to claim once more Her dominion over the realm of Knowledge.
