Myvera

"Righteousness shall be found by my hand, shining as a beacon in the dismay and dark mire for all my devout."

### Aliases

Lady of the Light, Lady of Dawn, Mother of Creation, Divine Justice

## In the Beginning, Light

The Mother of Creation. Myvera is associated with birth, renewal, goodness, morality, divine justice, and Light. Her origination coming from the Quat'bala Pillar known as Nu'wa, with her name translating simply as 'mother.'

She is one of the three ruling Seraphim and her likeness is depicted as a young woman with long, brunette hair and golden eyes. She has two sets of ivory wings, one set being larger than the other. Despite these positive aspects associated with Myvera, the actual deity who walked the planes could be cruel in her justice and sought the admiration of all beings, no matter what.

Her direct primordial counterpart is Azazel. Together they represent Light and Dark, Life and Death, Justice and Enlightenment. Two halves necessary in the universe to be in balance. She is The Lady of the Dawn in tandem to Azazel being the Lord of the Morning Star.

## Blessed In Divine Justice

Myvera's radiance permeated throughout the cosmos--almost to the point of threatening to completely taking out Dark and shadow; this in turn meaning an eternal sunlight. But because of the holiness of this Light, none dared to look or stand in defiance... Until Azazel.

In this initial meeting and stand-off, Myvera almost smites Azazel. However, in his charisma, the Lord of Darkness was able to bind himself to her forevermore.

This did not stop Myvera from becoming the personification of divine justice for lesser beings. In times of cruelty, Myvera bringing down retribution in the name of Light. The lighthouse in the sea of storms for mortality that brought them to salvation.

### The Mother of All

As the Mother of Creation, Myvera is tied to the origins of practically all--whether directly or indirectly. Her help and powers the basis and foundations of creating existence as it is now.

However, the Seraph of Light did have children of her own as well as created certain beings from aether or from the earth. Her essences infused with very powerful creation magics that were later on instilled within differing schools of magic.

With the Seraph of Dark, and during the beginnings of their binding, came about the cycles of day and night. The two also created the natural elements (their son Katan) as well as the changing seasons (their four daughters Skade, Ceta, Rhene, and Orla). Perhaps most notably, the two also instilled a piece of their essences into two separate Aspects: Eden and Hades.

And with the Seraph of Balance, Myvera made manifest concepts related to order and law. Their three sons Uriel, Eberhon, and Enkian representing these things--Uriel in particular when appointed the Throne of Judgment.

Beyond this, Myvera helped create lesser beings through divine will as well as by shaping clay. Her direct children going on to create their own concepts and individuals until the universe became teeming with life.

### Harbinger of Utopia

Myvera's ultimate goal and will for her creations is that of Utopia--a promised land in which is devoid of death, conflict, war, and injustice. A place of eternal sunlight and warmth. But perhaps most importantly, a place for her devout to show their true admiration to her directly; and in turn, bestowing her blessings and love to her creations.

Of course, this extreme example in Good and Light has met opposition from Azazel and it has been the main conflict throughout many lifetimes. During the time of the Pre-Sundering, this conflict wasn't so polarizing and kept in check. Post-Sundering, however, Myvera's ambition to bring about Utopia becoming almost fanatical.

## Psalm of the Dawn & Morning Star

The official psalm as preached by Celestial priests and priestesses would have you believe it was through Myvera's divinity that her binding with Azazel didn't result in Azazel outright trying to kill her. That through the will of Light, she prevailed and the two still co-exist. This version, however, isn't quite true.

At the beginning, Myvera went uncontested in her might and spreading of Light throughout existence. But Azazel saw through the veneer first-hand: such an abundance in only Light was casting out his own domain and causing rifts. And most maddening of all, he noticed the first known lesser beings were apathetic and complacent in their acceptance of "how things are." In their ignorance and before Azazel bringing about enlightenment, none of them dared to question this or seek out different outcomes.

So, Azazel stood in defiance and opposed Myvera's Light with his Darkness. Through this, he brought on the first night and subsequently, the first dawn after so much unending Light. His permanent solution being to bind himself to Myvera for all eternity.

At first, Myvera was furious and attempted to sunder the fellow Seraph. Azazel prefers to say that it was through his charismatic nature alone that he prevented his sundering and eventually went on to create alongside Myvera, but, a good share of the contribution can be attributed to the intervention of Sunael and then Sunael's decree to be arbiter of Light and Dark.

To say if Myvera truly loves Azazel is a complicated matter, even within the Celestial faith. Azazel is considered the personification of necessary evil in contrast to Myvera's divine justice. Thus, through the eyes of the faith, their binding was simply a means to a larger goal. In a Pre-Sundering world, the two did have their times of relative happiness and admiration; in the Post-Sundering, things seemingly devolved quickly and those old memories becoming distant.
