Hylea

Hylea (a.k.a. Sky-Mother, Queen of Birds)

Hylea also known as bird queen, is the goddess of birds and the sky.
Hylea visits the people on the screams of women in childbirth - and when a woman dies giving life to her child, her soul is carried away and reborn as an avian attendant of Hylea's Court. Midwifes of Hylea wear the fetish charms of the Cloudsinger. Those feathery trinkets look gaudy and unbecoming, but it is a signal fire to women in need that they are a trained midwife, blessed by Hylea and living every note of life's song. The Queen of Birds wills their followers to shepherd new life into the world, and not, as the other gods so often desire, to end it.
