Origin
Goddess of Beginnings
Everything comes from something and everything is at some point new. Origin is the embodiment of this renewal and youth. While her moon, Lune, is smaller than the other two, it shines much brighter. When it's overhead, it comes with a challenge to start something or to seek new ways of living life!
History
The Moirai survived the Dawn War to make sure there was a future. The Moon Maiden represents this eternal renewal. She has watched over the inception of new ideas — both wonderful and terrifying, and few original ideas have come from those trying to evade her light. Historic records make sure to note when a new expedition or such set out under Lune's light.
Worship
Everyone's life is full of possible beginnings. You're concieved, born, learn, form new bonds... Origin doesn't discriminate between those who worship her and those who don't. She happens to all. That said, there are many who heed her message. Temples built in honour of the Maiden are never finished, only ever added to or reworked. There is always at least one space left intentionally incomplete and open to the rest of the world, showing the need to invite new possibilities. Many choose to take their newborn to Origin's temples to wish the child a good beginning in the world. Couples often use Origin's temples to meet potential partners, and some temples even provide match-making services.
Imagery that celebrates Origin often uses flowers or seeds, occastionally with some fertility symbolism. When the goddess herself is portrayed, it's as a young woman wearing light, flowing clothes. She's often showed with long hair that covers her eyes.
