Aslir, Deity of Fertility
The Beginning , The Blossom, The Birthing One
In a world filled with death and doom, many are quick to forget the beauty and life that sprouts from the world. From the bodies of countless dead, the land will in time grow over and bloom once more. While druids may worship nature, those of the light pantheon know that it is truly Aslir that governs the birthing of life and the harvest of crops. Aslir is typically depicted as a beautiful androgynous figure, typically pregnant, and wreathed in green hair that covers much of its face. Her worship is perhaps some of the oldest in the world, for how else can one explain the creation of life in the womb, or the blossoming of crops in the summer? It is through Aslir that the young lover and the farmer can live happily, for their labors create wonders of life and nature.

Artifacts
There is said to be a special type of flower called Aescine, that only blooms deep in a forest and only if the person seeking it is truly in love. This flower can then be retrieved and shown to the person of one's interests. Granted, traveling out in the forest is an easy way to end up dead, so this is mainly only done by the most love struck fools out there.

Gender Identity
While some depictions in the ancient past have more solidly portrayed Aslir as feminine or masculine, these traditions have died off as most embrace Aslir's depiction as a being beyond the mortal understanding of gender. This is why cultists of her faith do not get too angry if someone refers to Aslir as "mother" or "father" but the cultists themselves prefer more gender-neutral terminology when referring to said god.
