Grieving Moonstaff

Lougrim was a moon deity born to a cold world of soft silvers and silence. Her people lived lives of quiet contemplation, each moment spent wondering about the next. They were passive, soft spoken and sedentary, which drove Lougrim wild.

When a doorway to another world appeared and a grieving god wandered through it, Lougrim took the opportunity to run. To flee to another place, and live a life that she could endure.

History skips the next bit. Her closest allies have never learned what elevated her from her previous form to that of the goddess of the hunt, but whatever it was, it was profound enough to change her completely. She no longer resembled her silent kindred. She was quiet, yes, but in the way a tiger is moments before a kill. She was contemplative, true, but it was the stillness of a spider awaiting its prey.

When she found the garou, she knew she had found her real kindred. They were violent and deadly, and they yearned for the hunt. When she took her place as their goddess, she focused and refined them, creating hunters capable of felling almost any prey.

Yet still she kept the moon as her symbol, a reminder of her home and how far she had come since leaving it.

Now her priests bear the symbol, atop their staves and as the focus on their altars. They accept and revere Kuldra as their High Queen, yet they grieve the moon goddess who made them who they are today.
