Medeis (Meh-Dice)
Goddess of Medicine, Science and Magic
As time marched on, Vita grew hopeless, thinking that the world she created was a waste. But soon there came a boy, no older than ten. Through his tears and pain, he held onto hope. He told Vita not to lose the hope she once had for the world. That one day she would see her world complete as long as she believed.
When one day, an elderly woman came to Vita. She talked of a thing called a cure, she believed it would help rid the world of all the pain and suffering. Vita looked into the heart of this woman and granted her the status of Goddess. Medeis brought a cure, a simple art called medicine, which she amplified with magic and science.
Medeis is said to be the second mortal to be granted the status of deity. She is seen as the smartest person to have ever existed. Those who follow her teachings and worship her are seen as very intelligent and well-read beings. She understands that in this world, medicine, science and magic go hand in hand and are very often one in the same.

Divine Symbols & Sigils
The symbol of Medeis is a blue snake curling around a red chalice. The snake is to represent medicine as snakes possess anti-venom against their own poison. The red chalice is simple and plain in design, representing the scientific nature and intelligence of her being and that intelligence can come from anyone. The celestial being on Medeis is the Naga; a giant snake being of magic and intelligence. Feared throughout Aether, coming across a Naga can only be the work of Medeis and she is testing you.
Tenets of Faith
Medeis has one simple belief. Study and study hard. Her worshippers will have normally spent years of work studying the vast and unknown and be seen as intellects in their settlements, big or small. Clerics of Medeis are well sought after as their understanding of medicine and knowledge is greatly needed throughout the world.
