Tenets of Faith
Intelligent beings can live in harmony with the wild without requiring the destruction of one in the name of the other. Embrace the wild and fear it not, because the wild ways are the good ways. Keep the Balance and learn the hidden ways of life, but stress the positive and outreaching nature of the wild. Do not allow trees to be needlessly felled or the forest burned. Live in the forest and be a part of the forest, but do not dwell in endless battle against the forest. Protect forest life, defend every tree, plant anew where death fells a tree, and restore the natural harmony that fire-users and woodcutters often disrupt. Live as one with the woods, teach others to do so, and punish and curtail those that hunt for sport or practice cruelties on wild creatures.
Worship
Divine spellcasters following Mielikki pray for spells in either the morning or evening, but are required to observe both events. Once a month, clerics and druids are required to perform the Song of Trees, calling forth a dryad or treant and performing odd jobs for it for a day. Mielikkians also hold the equinoxes and solstices as holy days, called the Four Feasts.
