Description
Waiting for a more detailed treatment of the monadic cult of the Goddess, we can see a priestess of the Goddess' clergy.

Traditionally, only women are allowed active roles in the cult, although males can also enter the bureaucratic and administrative apparatuses of the church.

Her robes qualify her as a priestess of the Merdional temple, an administrative division comprising Mahaldoro, Zaba and Matazar.

The priestess wears the eight-pointed star around her neck, symbolising her role as herald of the Goddess.

The priestesses take a vow of celibacy, but not chastity (the idea that a fertility deity could see her priestesses refusing procreation is considered ridiculous).
However, by decree of the High Priestess of Larus, all children born to priestesses must, for the purposes of inheritance and family, be considered illegitimate.
