Tenets of Faith
Prospera promotes and encourages the art of sewing seeds and growth, whether it be a crop of wheat or during the act of love. She is the goddess of all prosperity, and with prosperity comes wealth, so she also teaches the art of fair negotiations and contracts. Her belief is the true path to personal wealth is to be fair to those you do business with, to be honest and forthright and good things shall come to you. "If you want your crop to be bounitful, then sew good seed," is a mantra of those who follow Propspera. She will not bless or aid those that come by their wealth dishonestly or through scandalous means.
For life to prosper, it must be constantly perpetuated, thus Prospera is also the mother of love, birth, and the cycle of life. Maidens pray to her to receive the love and adoration of a good suitor. Wives and mothers pray to her for a successful birth of a healthy child, as well as farmers that raise livestock will ask for her blessing for the successful birth of an animal in their charge.
