Stone

Stone is the deity of hospitality and sustenance.

Stone is one of the Gods of the Sea, one of the three gods not introduced through the arrival of new cultures.

Stone cares for all would receive her embrace, and it is her will that people live in peace, caring for each other and seeing each other’s needs met. Her followers are very determined to look after one another, and if they have the resources to spare, helping others. Her followers may be devout, but they are far from fervorous making little effort to convert others or interfere in conflicting affairs if they can avoid it.

It is said that sailors praying to Stone for safety have received her help, in the form of safe passage and good weather, in exchange for a sacrifice of food and comfort. Indeed, in Stone’s ideal world these needs would be replenished by generous souls at the next port.

Shrines to Stone are pyramidal in shape. They are sometimes made of stone, though more often of wood, and decorated sparsely with anything the owner enjoys. Stone is happy if you are happy.

Stone’s complete history is all but lost, but her name is mentioned in historical records every now and then. Tales tell that she was once a queen, but that her kingdom was lost. Some societies even exist today that base their lives around her; though any that may have been around during the earliest records of her existence are nowhere to be found.
