Welcome ritual

With a mother's gentleness, Lisaera, the Silver Goddess says, "My Lisae grow stronger with every
oath taken. Ever Rite that is uttered creates new blossoms in the gardens of our hearts, and our
family is strengthened."

Lisaera, the Silver Goddess strides slowly to Her pool and kneels, resting a hand on the surface of
the waters. At Her touch, the pool begins to glimmer with moonfire, its silver light casting an
ambient glow across the cavern walls.

Looking into the pool, its light reflected in Her eyes, Lisaera, the Silver Goddess says, "Let us
first celebrate the growth of those who have come before Nimhuire. If you have shared in the Rite,
join Me here and place your hands in the flames."

Letting the fires travel up Her arms as She holds Her hands in place, Lisaera, the Silver Goddess
says, "Repeat what I say, My children."

The blazing moonfire enveloping Her slowly, Lisaera, the Silver Goddess says, "We know in our hearts
that the flames of life will soon burn away, leaving behind fertile soil for new life to grow."

Closing Her eyes as the flames glow brighter, Lisaera, the Silver Goddess says, "We stand as bearers
of change, men and women as powerful as the raging storm and as resolute as the cycle of the seasons."

The moonfire swells, emanating from the Silver Goddess like a breeze. As it passes through you, the
sensation is cool to the touch, like a gentle breeze in the beginning of autumn. Your heart swells
as you realize the Goddess protects you from the blaze with Her presence.

A maiden's smile on Her lips as She concludes Her ritual words, Lisaera, the Silver Goddess says,
"By our wisdom, the First World will know strength and power, life and death. We are purity in
nature. We are Lisae."
