Divine Domains

Civilization, Inventions and Law

Holy Books & Codes

Erathis often is attributed with the creation of The Light of Pelor. This is due to a major difference between In the Sun Father's Hand, an ancient book that is attributed to Pelor compared to The Light of Pelor. The Light of Pelor was made after Erathis and Pelor married each other, while In the Sun Father's Hand is thought to have been written far before their marriage.
The Queen's Verdict is Erathis' main text. It speaks about her views and how you as a person can help enact her plan and build towards the foreseen Great Civilization. This text is commonly held by members of the Radiant Sisterhood and any other worshiper or follower of Erathis.
