Idunn - The Mother - NG
Family, Healing, Wisdom
Idunn has been a part of Kaidryn since its conception, for it was she who helped to shape its form and to help protect it, though those that came before her return did not speak of her for to discover this being would risk far too much. Though she was unknown to the people, Idunn the Mother cared for them, forming a barrier through her divine energy to conceal this planet from detection and protect the planet from outward forces, and it is through this barrier that kept her people safe for so very long. Comforted by this knowledge, yet strained through the energy required to maintain this barrier, Idunn grew dormant for many ages, slumbering within the core of the world, that is until she was awoken aeons later by the screams of her children, of the people of Kaidryn and their despair was palpable, something was wrong, her barrier was no more and the Age of Omens had begun.
As chaos reigned upon Kaidryn, there was little Idunn could do, still weakened from her strained state of maintaining the barrier for so long, even forgetting herself for a time, she took up mortal arms and fought back the forces of Oblivion, aiding those she could, and with each defeated being, memories flooded back into her, and her power grew, of the protection she gave, and of her children's prayers to her, a power that she now could use. Though as her memories slowly began to return, she discovered something terrible, she was locked here, blocked in many ways as the cursed Dying Lands chained here and held her in a deathly grip that drained from her the divine power she held, though not enough.
It is said that during this time, as her spark of divinity returned that she fought with the Champions of Light at the Seat of Oblivion, others claim that she was elsewhere holding back a tide of evil that would squash the world, whatever the case, as Oblivion was defeated, Idunn's full power and memories were restored, a spark of divinity washed over the lands, cleansing it of the corruption, of the pain and the wounds of those suffering, and with each spark of energy, prayers flowed forward, as little by little, The Mother healed what was lost, but more than that, she was free, free of what bound her, and free to at last care for her family.
