Old version Forgotten Family

The shadowed three. The Misted trio. The gods abandoned. These three nameless gods disappeared from the world quite near the beginning. Not much is known about them beyond that they were once gods of the Fae. The only surviving member of the Fae gods is the Queen of the Fae and she has not set foot in the material plane since the Dawn of Truths.
The Forgotten Family is what is known to the general public of the world. They have very few shrines built to them in the Great Cities, they are revered more in private by most. They are seen as a celebration of the family one has found rather than the one someone is born with. They generally worshipped as a trio, and as a single entity. This usually follows along a gathering of close friends where they would thank the Forgotten Family for allowing the companions for meeting and engaging with one another and thus sustaining the friendships they have.
There is a small ceremony some partake in. This is a done with a small statue of the three, though these statues are faceless and change shape and ethnicity depending on region, but it always a trio of three people facing each other with a small basin in the center of the group. This basin will typically hold a small candle that is lit by the friends doing the ceremony. After which the friends will present a letter to the other, typically a written account of how they met or the circumstances surrounding the particular get together for that day. To which these letters are then burned in offering to the Three. This is seen as passing along the values of family having no bounds to the heavens. After which the friends will go on their with their business, whether it is a celebration, feast, or any other communal get together.
However the Forgotten Family are also seen as gods of great sadness. This is because despite being depicted differently in the local nomenclature, they are always the gods that have been forgotten. Forgotten by whom however, is unknown. That particular bit of knowledge seems to have been scrubbed from every historical record ever found. Despite a massive effort from the few devoted followers these gods have, no information has ever turned up. Some have attempted to contact the Queen of the Fae about the subject, but upon asking the Goddess ejects the mortal from the plane of the Fae with always the same words "I cannot speak of gone, I cannot accept their loss. For you are not of the unknown." This has been invariably been said on every attempt. To date four hundred devotees have attempted this.
Subsequently the Forgotten Family is also sought after by those seeking comfort in melancholy states. Those suffering from trauma, mental illness, shock, and the down trodden are often found praying to the Family. The prayer to the Three is slightly different than the other mentioned in this text, instead of the worshipper giving the letter to another, they write about someone they'd wish to meet. This letter is then offered to the candle flame in the hope that the absent gods will hear their plea and help them find new happiness in the world.
