Selune - The DawnMother
"No one deserves it...least of all, myself. It is grace, pure and simple...but the Creator's light envelopes us regardless."The mighty Selune is revered as the Ancient of Light and Leadership. She is considered to be among the most powerful of the Prime Ancients. She resides high in the angelic realm of Serenia, along with a multitude of Lightsworn that serve her loyally. Followers of Selune are generally comprised of Paladins, Priests, Clerics, and adventurers from all across Arkos. While there was a time during much of the Third Age where worship of Selune saw a steady decline, her direct intervention during The Kindling has seen her gain more followers than most of the other Prime Ancients. Selune had her aspect stolen from her by Nex during the The Kindling, and was physically drained of her power to the point where she was rendered mortal. After Nex was sealed away by the Companions, she spent much time recovering from her extensive injuries and wandering Arkos, acquiring a new point of view on the world she once was a steward of. Calling herself Sel for the next five years, she eventually met the adventuring group known as the Sanctioned, who were working to stop the machinations of the insane Lightsworn Janus. Realizing her time as an Ancient was not over, she took an aspect of power from the Sanctioned given to them by the Ancient Uriel, and went to reclaim her place in Serenia. Helping to save the city of Bastion and its denizens from Janus' influence, Selune slowly regained her lost power and position as her people welcomed her back with open arms. Vowing to make up for her past mistakes, Selune has readopted her role as a steward over creation, and a champion for all those who call for aid.
