Cleric Vastraela Bronzemantle
It takes a special person to be a cleric for a clan full of smiths, which is why the Clerics of Tholladur are women.— Vastraela Bronzemantle
The small house is filled with the sound of clattering dishes and pots. Two women, dressed in pieces of armor, rush about the kitchen, heaping plates with food and setting the table for seven. Within moments, the door opens to a group covered in splotches of black and other colors. One of the men and one of the girls heads towards a washbasin, quickly scrubbing the black from worn hands.
One of the women in armor begins placing full plates in front of those at the table, while the younger of the two women finds her seat. In one breath, she is chastising the men for being so dirty, in the next, she is healing the small wounds on the hands of the
Human child. When the table is full and the men are sat, she dutifully takes her place next to her husband at the head of the table.
The woman who moves so effortlessly through this life is Vastraela Bronzemantle, mother and
Cleric. The group she so easily feeds every day at noon is comprised of her husband, his brothers, and her daughters. This is their one break from their work during the day, and Vastraela makes sure that this moment with her family is a moment of peace in an otherwise hectic day.
When the table is clear and the men and two of her daughters return to the forges, she leaves her daughter
Kattyn to straighten the kitchen as she returns to her duties at the shrine. As one of the elder
Clerics in
Tholladur, her work never ceases, constantly healing and helping those that bring to fruition the visions of the smiths and crafters.
