Lauma

Intro "She descended when late spring's first full moon hung in the sky, trees and flowers grew in response to her first cry." "Laugh now, dance now, as the newborn Moonchanter weeps—" "For her horns and blood are bathed in moonlight, for beneath the Moon Goddess's gaze shall she sleep." ...Lauma closed the Frostmoon Scions' journal. She always found herself unconsciously turning to the page that recorded her birth, trying to feel the joy of the faithful through the yellowed notes. Just as geniuses often emerge from among common stock, Lauma, an extraordinary being, was born to an ordinary Frostmoon Scion couple. According to records, "her eyes were like the moontide, her antlered crown grew under the moonlight, and her silver blood flowed like the moon's reflection in water" — a "miracle bestowed upon the faithful by the Moon Goddess." At the fringe of the world, among the "Frostmoon Scions," who had seemingly become forgotten by time itself, Lauma became a beacon of hope, timely yet untimely. The overjoyed followers took her as proof that their Moon Goddess had not abandoned them, and she became a living symbol. Few are chosen at birth to succeed the title of Moonchanter, and as a Frostmoon Scion herself, Lauma should have rejoiced, regarding this responsibility as a supreme honor. Just as it was written in the next passage of the journal, yes, the very words Lauma had committed to memory: "...Sweetly shall she sleep beneath the Moon Goddess's gaze." "And when the moon slumbers and the sun rises, she shall speak for the supreme Frost Moon Goddess."
