Demeter the Queen of the Sacred Grove, and Lady of the Wildwood. She was created as a Celani by Gaia to guide and nurture the nine forest spirits. As the creation of the forests progressed, Demeter was nearly a Goddess in her own right when an elemental imbalance threatened to destroy the forests. Gaia came to Demeter and asked for her help. Demeter agreed to protect that which she loved and held sacred she sacrificed much of her essence to aid Gaia. Gaia was able to destroy the threat to the forests. However the Celani Demeter was weakened, she was able to us the last little bit of essence she had remaining to sleep, and she drifted off into peaceful slumber to dream of her former realm.

After the disappearance and departure of the Earthmother, Demeter felt a stirring in her dreams that would begin to awaken the sleeping Celani. Through a ritual, those who loved the forests were able to capture her essence into a silver mist and bind it to the nine forest spirits She once helped to grow. The greater forest spirit, birthed from the nine, was called to her, and from this union, the forgotten Celani Demeter awakened as a Goddess, to protect and oversee the forests she cherished. However, from before Her birth, She had been tainted by an insidious being called the Wyrm of Worlds, once imprisoned by Gaia. It would eventually overcome and possess Demeter, taking over Her form and imprisoning Her weakened soul in the netherworld from whence he came.

She was imprisoned by the Wyrm of Worlds, who She later defeated after mortals helped to free her. At this time, She transformed into Melantha, the Goddess of the Seasons.

Her temple rests in the Aerinewild forest.
