Mirithna

General
Mirithna the Golden-Eyed is a Goddess of forgiveness, protection, redemption and, to some worshippers, hills. Firsan religion claims that she settled Firsan lands when the world was still young, making her the primary deity of Firsan lands alongside Asun, whom Firsans claim to be the husband of Mirithna. While the Firsans are correct about the two Gods' marital status, virtually everyone else, aside from the Dawi, disagrees. Mirithna is generally one of the most commonly worshipped Gods in the world, and many temples have at the very least an alcove dedicated to her.

History
Mirithna was the last of the first generation Gods to emerge on Kranos, arriving a few months after Ziuna did. She found the hilly lands of Firsa quite appealing, and decided to settle it and guard over the evolving creatures of her beloved hills. Of all the Gods, Mirithna was the least happy to join the struggle against the extraplanar threat during the War of the Firstborn, but not even forgiveness incarnate could turn a blind eye to the destruction wrought by the great enemy. Long after the great enemy was defeated, she decided to ensure that those under her protection should never have to suffer the pains of the war she was forced to fight. She sought to teach her children to fortify their lands, but knew little of the matter, and so she sought out Asun's aid. Asun, who was madly in love with the Golden-Eyed Goddess, happily obliged, thus laying the foundation of Firsans' natural talent for fortification and advantage of terrain based warfare. The two Gods would bond over their mutual love for their homes: Asun's mountains in southern Tatria, Western Khiva and Eastern Xholoria, and Mirithna's hills in Firsa, Lok'hal, Prithus, Win'la and more. They eventually wed, becoming the second and last pairing of Gods of the first generation and Gods as a whole. It was Mirithna who convinced Asun to help her and Daudri speed up the evolution of the races of the Khivan continent to even the scales with the efforts of Pelor and Lenador. Asun, who cared little for the Sun God and the Trickster God, chose his wife over continental kinship and acceded.

Over time, Mirithna would become revered not only by the people in her care, but all peoples of the world that she was known to. Of all the Gods, she was the only one whose followers were persecuted by no-one, and she would often be invoked as a peacekeeping element in the early days of Kranos. It is said she is responsible for all that is good in the hearts of the Kranosi races, and that her golden eyes will always gaze upon you with love and comfort regardless of how depraved you or your actions may have been. Despite skirting the moral territory of the God Tyr, the two were on friendly terms, and even Tyr recognized the Golden-Eyed Goddess as a "better" person than himself. However, her presence in Kranos was always finite, for she would eventually disappear without warning alongside the rest of the Kranosi Gods.

Worship
Followers of Mirithna are expected to primarily embrace kindness and forgiveness while abandoning hate and revenge. She is considered the most "good" deity of the pantheon due to her almost naïve forgiving nature, and her temples always shelter those in need.

Mirithna's priests, her most devoted, tend to be rather odd to speak to. They seem almost robotically kind and creepily friendly to someone who has never met one before, but all eventually realize that their kindness is so overwhelming due to them having embraced it entirely. There are, of course, exceptions to this trend. To worship her, you must simply enter one of her many temples, kneel before her shrine, and pray. You worship her practically when you let hatred go, forgive someone who's wronged you, or perform acts of kindness in your daily life. Finally, Mirithna accepts only one offering: soil gathered from a hill.
