Ausa
God of rain, good health, and liberty
Joyous and free, Ausa's gentle rains are welcomed by farmers and city-dwellers alike, washing away the grime and dirt of yesterday. But it is more than that, for those that whisper their shames and secrets to the rain find their bodies lighter, their hearts and minds less troubled. Ausa listens, and he comforts and reassures.
More than just a rain god, he is a dancer, bringing the rain with his movements. The tip-tapping of rain on the roof is sometimes called "Ausa's footsteps."

Commonalities & Shared Interests
Incenderre and Ausa are both deities that are given secrets by their worshippers. The difference is that Ausa keeps these secrets, while Incenderre rewards his faithful with these tales told in confidence. Ausa sees Incenderre as untrustworthy and duplicitous for not keeping the secrets of his followers, while Incenderre sees Ausa as a foolish little boy with bells around his ankles.
