The Edlarose        

[She is a gossamer lining of silver in a world of dark clouds. But there is a dark, seductive part of Turan that only the wisest rulers have come to understand. In fact, in most cities, Temples of Turan are not allowed within city walls. Young men, women, and even mothers are so enthralled by the goddess' allure; temples must be kept from one's sight, "lest those who are easily beguiled be brought into the temple every day."]

That was a rather lengthy description. Ren mused to himself.

In this regard, she was quite a naive goddess. Ren thought. In a violent world, her aims were almost comical, but this did not stop young men and women from worshipping her and continuing on until her first child was born.

Ren's eyes went to Turan herself. He knew that it wasn't her real face, but he couldn't help but marvel at her beauty.
