Taso

Taso is the primal water, his father was the Sun and his mother the Moon. He was the mingling of their shadow, just as Anyu, his sister, was the mingling of light. He covered Anyu to hide her and the Heart of Asur from hungry spirits. He is the god of the depths, the hidden realms below the waves. The essence of water resides with him, and all spirits of water pay him homage. Besides spirits, few worship this distant deity, though some mariners and inhabitants of the Amathine Isles pay him homage. The sea elves are also occasional devotees, as are the Kulroq, who feel a strong affinity with the seas. Taso lives within the Dreampool, a mingling and confluence of ocean currents. The Dreampool is also called the Conflux, and it is said to connect to every body of water on Vala, though only the merfolk would know of this. Taso is served by polyps, alien beings of protean water that can be both friend and foe to sailors. Taso is Hila's son, but he is unlike his father. Gloomy and brooding, he prefers to drift deep below the waves, dreaming and pondering. He is associated with moisture, stillness and the deep ocean. Little interested in earthly affairs, he only occasionally pays attention to what occurs above the waves. Kulroq philosophers honor him as the source of deep and profound thought.
