Saphiel

Saphiel
The Goddess of Healing, Fertility, Comfort, and Humility. It is said as the ashes settled over Carim and the orcs were driven far beyond its borders, that the humans of the land felt forsaken by Nema. As Nema had come to the aid of the Anteans but not her children that resided alongside the Caesians. So, in their desperation they prayed to Nihil and their hearts were opened with grief. Begging for him to take them in as adopted sons and daughters, but instead from their collective consciousness sprang forth a new being.

Wreathed in the light of the sun, clothed with the mist of the morning air, and gifted with beauty beyond comparison; Saphiel was born. In her fledgling state as a new goddess the being would bring hope to human and Caesian alike. Preforming wonders and healing the sick, all the while passing down her gifts to all who would listen.

It would not be long until Nihil returned from the heavens to take Saphiel as his wife. Now, through the years the two gods bore many more minor gods that serve them.

Recent History & Worship
The Church of Order see Saphiel as an equal to Nihil, however she is not openly worshiped in her own right. Instead she is always accompanied by Nihil or at least mentions of him during the prayers, chants, and rites preformed by the Church.

However, within villages and cities alike minor cults have rose up. Typically among doctors and midwives, were she is openly worshiped as a proper goddess instead of simply being Nihil's wife. Such worship is allowed by the Empire of Carim, however not fully accepted within the nobility. The practice of the cults only has a following among the peasantry and a few impoverished nobles. It is unknown if Saphiel's worship has spread to other countries or is simply a practice among the people of Carim.
