Montilena (mohn-teh-len-ah)
Bird of Hope
MYTHOLOGY
Montilena's tale is one of love, loyalty and hope. For she was first a mortal. In essence: No mortal was perfect but she lived a beautiful life for others and caught the very eye and heart of the god of love, Lapin . He took her to a home he made all for her and allowed them the time to fall in love. By Lapin's favour by all his family they granted him the immortalisation of his wife knowing it would split his domains with her and so they share the duty of rebirth and symbols of fertility. They would then go on to birth the gods of Loyalty, Love, Communication and Pain.
PAST WORSHIP
Her unique tale of coming to power captivated many at the time while her very existence was a warning against jealousy and the power of hope, she remained a beacon of said hope rather than a goal to strive towards. She grew immensely popular, for who else would one lacking devotion cry out to in their darkest moments than Hope? What is left to do when your hands are bound and knees to the floor than to sing?
PRESENT WORSHIP
For all those downtrodden, for hope will bloom no matter where you are, no matter your circumstances. And often, in the form of music. A favourite to throw out a quick prayer by a many bards and young lovers looking to serenade.
