Jastev

Jastev was an Arkati and the God of Prophecy and Visual Arts. He was the son of Eonak and Imaera and a member of the Pantheon of Liabo.

Jastev had the honor of being the only Arkati that Gosaena will speak to, and the one whom Charl most regularly spends time with. He was often somber for having seen the end of the world and encouraged the arts as a way to preserve the beauty of the world. He was the patron of mystics, fortune tellers, and seers.

His symbol was a silver crystal ball on a field of gray or a paintbrush on a field of black.

Shrines, Statuary, and Holy Places

Cleric Guilds

In a Prayer Room inside each Cleric Guild is a statue of Jastev. The Prayer Rooms are considered holy shrines to multiple deities.

Wehnimer's Landing Cleric Guild

One of the Halls of Lessons in the Wehnimer's Landing Cleric Guild is dedicated to Jastev. The statue is identical to that in the other Cleric Guilds. It is considered a holy shrine.

[Cleric Guild, Halls of Lessons]
The warm golden lacquered wood of the walls fades away into a dull, muted grey in this small chamber. Orbs of the same drab color are set into runic patterns upon the floor, their crystalline surfaces glinting softly in the flickering light. A statue of a man to the northwest stares quietly into the distance, as if gazing at something only he could see. Set before the statue is a dark stone altar, its edges delicately carved and embellished, adding a tiny hint of beauty to the somber surroundings.

Slightly pitted about the middle, the altar is crafted of mottled grey stone that appears rather drab. Along its edges, however, silver has been inlaid into the stone in flowing, wave-like patterns to subtly embellish the altar with a touch of beauty. A small book lies atop the altar, its pages open.

The book is open to display two finely-textured yellowish white pages, an immaculate painting of a double-edged sword crossing over both. Faint silver knotwork borders each page, giving the book a delicate, beautiful appearance. The words above the sword's blade read, "There is much beauty in the world, and much beauty to come..." Beneath the words are inked in a more slower, steady hand, "Be careful if you seek to know what is to come, for with it comes much sadness that has yet to pass..."

Located in the Antechamber of Liabo is a table inset with disks depicting all of the Liabo arkati, including one for Jastev. This area is not considered a holy shrine.

A black artist's brush on a field of grey is painted on the crystal disk representing Jastev.
