11.7.7 LORIELAN, THE ENLIGHTENED
The former Queen of Proteus and once Jade Empress, Lorielan was recently
released from Her crystalline prison to walk among the worlds once more. Her
first return introduced a goddess of strict Knowledge and history, Her
interest in the simple facts of existence and their endless accumulation. A
breath of time and a second respite to the Kx'Khrah plane found the Lady no
longer satisfied with the neutrality and moral ambiguity of that realm, and
Her focus turned to the use and analysis of the information She once so
ardently attained.
Her crimes during the time of the Triumvirate were numerous, and to be
forgiven of them, She grew to embrace a deep morality that was the counter
to Her once reckless and dominating Self. Her time spent in introspection
gave Her both Wisdom and Enlightenment, as well as a desire to ensure that
Knowledge was bent towards the benefit of others. This change has suffused
through Her current existence, creating a natural alliance with the concepts
of Light, Righteousness, and Virtue. She patrons the realms of Knowledge,
Wisdom, Truth, and Enlightenment, using them in accordance with those
beliefs, yet does not claim them as solely Hers.
Though once again involved in the realm of Achaea, Her attitude is often one
of aloofness and apathy when dealing with those with dissimilar ideals. She
cares not for material items, mortal vows, or petty bickering. Even shrines
are often beneath Her attention. To gain the Lady's notice, one must display
both intelligence and a deep devotion to Good.
The symbol of the Lady Lorielan is a crystal scroll.
