Leya
Leya was a lesser spirit and patron of the Amazons and martial arts.
Leya was an elf who was the daughter of Kai and an elven woman named Learya. With the strength of the immortal and the mortal, she bested all in feats of martial prowess. Leya fought in the Undead War, wielding the legendary sword Soulingen, where she accidentally killed her lover, Egan. In despair, she withdrew from the battlefield and built a tomb for Egan nearby Ta'Vaalor. Then with only a dagger, she departed into the countryside never to return.
Her symbol was an ivory-hilted dagger on a field of blue. Her followers have been known as Amazons.

Carved from flawless marble, the statue depicts Leya, her sandals and tunic befitting her fluid combat stance. She stands proudly, her beautiful features gazing up at the ceiling and the light streaming from above.

Spell Messaging
As you sense your souls have linked together, the smell of trillium flowers surrounds you briefly.
- Blind (311)
- Caster sees: As your faith overcomes a <target>'s weakened defenses, you sense the cool confidence of the Master of Martial Arts flowing through you.
- Target sees: <caster>'s face shimmers and vanishes, and, in its place, you see the image of a woman in her twenties with wavy mahogany hair and azure eyes. Calm, unquestioning confidence fills her expression as she gazes directly at you, mitigated only slightly by the concealed shadow of sorrow. The image sears itself into your eyes before everything dissolves in a wash of grey.
- Prayer (313)
- Caster sees: Turning your thoughts inward, you ask for the skill of your deity to protect you. A sense of supple vitality flows through you, and you sense that your prayer has been granted.
- Others see: Azure light shimmers in <caster>'s eyes.
For your transgressions, the hands of all honorable people will turn against you, leaving you surrounded by traitors and fools. Fade your combatant skills will, offering you no reward for their application.
- Damage Type
- For Divine Fury (317), Divine Wrath (319), and Divine Strike (1615), Leya's damage type is puncture.
- Divine Wrath (319)
- As you pour your soul into an appeal to Leya, you know that you are heard. A wave of divine sorrow and anger washes through you, and, on the trailing end of that wave, and a rush of controlled power flows from your heart to your fingertips and toes.
- An ivory light blossoms into existence around you.
- A dagger of ivory light suddenly flashes away from the aura surrounding you to strike at <target>.
- The ivory light around you fades and glimmers out, and the strength and control of your movements lessens along with your connection to Leya.
Your spirit feels a sudden stirring in the air above your lifeless body and moments later a brilliantly white owl appears out of nowhere. It spreads its wings and you hear the audible crack of the air as they expand, lifting the owl in a lazy spiral above you. The bird's unblinking gaze falls upon you and you feel a deep connection with it before it gives three mighty beats of its wings and surges high into the sky and disappears.
Your senses become flooded with the distinct sound of an owl's cry, and the faint, fleeting scent of trillium as the world around you blurs...
[Glade Sanctuary]
Tall marble columns inlaid with lapis daggers enclose a well-used sparring ring, its center bare of the grass that emerges green only near the edge. Against the ivory hue of the pillars, trillium blossoms blend to near invisibility, distinguished only by dark verdant foliage and a scent that haunts the air like a waking dream. Set back from the grounds, statues look in from each of the cardinal points, characterized by remarkable craftsmanship; in front of each is a small pool of crystalline water.
Obvious exits: out
Azure sparks of light flood your vision, obscuring the sanctuary and causing it to dissolve around you...
