Melora

Melora, the Wildmother is the goddess of wilderness and the sea. She watches over nature, good harvest, grants protection from washing away in storms, guides the passage of ships, and protects smaller folk.

Symbols
One of Melora's symbols is a swirl carved into stone; a slow cascading spiral.(See below for an example made from a seashell.)

Issylra
The district of Vasselheim known as the Birthheart is dedicated to the Wildmother. The Birthheart is where most of the food in Vasselheim is grown. In such a cold environment it is Melora's blessing that allows the land there to be fertile and grow crops from many different places. The temple in this district devoted to her worship is called the Abundant Terrace.

Wildemount
Worship of the Wildmother is banned in the Dwendalian Empire. Outside of the Empire, in the Savalierwood near Shadycreek Run, Caduceus Clay and his family tended the graveyard in the Blooming Grove, which was a magically-warded sanctum that contained graves of people who had been touched by the Wildmother.

In Nicodranas, there is a lighthouse called the Mother's Lighthouse that is dedicated to the worship of the Wildmother. It had been kept by Lightkeeper Gladys for her entire 86-year life.

Known Worshipers
One worshiper in Westruun keeps a statue of Melora in her home. When the statue was broken, the owner said that she knew she would be forgiven for letting the statue break.
