The Moon Goddess Dalbosal is the light in the darkness, and the silent observer. She is the hunter of the night, the snake that strikes fast and retreats quickly. She is tactful and resourceful, the means by which she always clutches victory. Dalbosal is to both be revered, feared, and loved. She defends Aurea watchfully, for when the enemy’s army marches in the night and the Aurean Children sleep, her watchful grace is what will protect our nation.

The Moon Goddess Dalbosal is the patron Goddess of the Aurean Queen Beatrice Gennisi. (commonly known as Queen Bee) When Queen Bee was enduring great strife in Rathnir, the Goddess Dalbosal took pity on Bee and brought her to Eldham. The power of the moon Goddess is immense, and the connection Bee has to her patron goddess is unmatched. In meeting the native Morikomi Shamans, Queen Bee saw many shared values of her personal worship of Dalbosal and the practice of the Morikomi Shamans. In an agreement between the mountain dwelling shamans and the beloved Queen, the two faiths became a creolized faith where the mountains, moon, and four winds are all worshiped. The mountain behind the Castle of the Four Winds was named after the Moon Goddess and is known today as Mount Dalbosal. Aurea calls upon these deities when times of strife, and praises them in times of peace and plenty.

Moon ceremonies are held in Mount Dalbosal. A chamber in the center of the mountain is known as the Heart of Dalbosal Mountain. At midnight, when the moon’s light shines directly over the mountain peak, the light shines through the cavity at the peak of the mountain down into the heart below. In these rare moments, rituals of dance, song, and sacrifice are made for Dalbosal. Her silence is only broken then, and her voice is clear to the Aurean people. Her sageous nature and powerful spirit bless the Aurean people- for which we are ever grateful.
