'''Zisa'''
 
Those who follow the path of the Earth Mother must hold her teachings in their heart. Hers are not the ways of violence so we must avoid such temptations. This usually means taking to a life in the priesthood or beurocracy (a police unit to aid and protect the common folk is acceptable to Zisa). To take such a step would be to follow a druidic sort of path. The earth we walk on is the body of Zisa and she reveres those who toil honestly for their lives. The common folk are blessed by her and we nobility who follow her path should be willing to toil with them for we are not above them. We must respect all life around us, even if sometimes that life seems to run contrary to our own views of what should or shouldn’t be. There is one thing she would ask us to stand and fight against and that is the forces of darkness that come crawling up from the ground; the restless dead and the monsters that kill indiscriminately.

WORK IN PROGRESS. MAKE NO JUDGMENTS BASED ON INFORMATION HERE AS IT'S VERY INCOMPLETE

My name is Lady Agaresh Balewind and I am a follower of the Yggdrasili. The path of the divine marriage between Tyr, the Sky Father and Zisa, the Earth Mother. I speak as the prophet of Zisa and am bound by her now to prepare the faithful against the imminent darkness that threatens to rise up on Beluaterra.

Zisa is the Earth Mother from whom we all spring. She is a giver of life and healer of ills. She is strong and patient and gives the same respect as she would expect in turn. Her blessing can be found in the food we grow, the water we drink and the earth we stand on. She would offer protection from cruelty, chaos, unholy magics. In times of darkness and strife she takes up her staff to defend the faithful from evil. Those who serve her follow a sort of druidic path.

The 'Yggdrasil' itself is the tree that represents our faith. We use this tree because it’s roots reach deep into the earth to ground us and remind us of what is important, beautiful and what gives us life. The branches of this tree shelter and protect those under it while they reach for the heavens and the guidance of Tyr.

Zisa's ways are ones of peace and growth. We seek to aid the common folk in their humble tasks and promote good health and peace among the people and creatures of the earth. However we are not a pacifistic order as the forces of chaos and dark magic that we stand against are violent by their very nature. Tyr, husband to Zisa, watches over us and guides our hands true for when the time or darkness comes again, his light may be the only beacon against it. Ours is an order of harmony and vigilance.
