Church of Elise
Churches to Elise can be found wherever a group of dwellings have formed, even if it is just a rude shrine. As any family growing crops to survive will offer prayer to Elise for bountiful harvests, as you look towards larger settlements, her blessings in trade become more prominent, and you'll find members of Elise's priesthood overseeing trade deals.
In large trading towns and cities, the Church of Elise will be a centre of trade deals with a priest overseeing trades to ensure both parties are honest and fair in their dealings with each other, acting as an arbiter on complex deals and standing as an independent signatory in proof of the good faith of the creation of long-lasting, complex trade deals.

Tenets of Faith
The Priesthood of Elise fall largely into two groups; there are those who live and work in settlements where the harvest is vital, either due to the small size of the settlement or as a major producer feeding a larger town or city. These Priests tend to offer pary to Elise for good weather and rich harvests, helping with the day-to-day issues that can occur in a farm setting.
then there are the members of the priesthood who help to ensure fair and bounteous trade, trained in diplomacy, trade and legal laws of the area, and sometimes even assayers to check the quality of what is being traded. Skilled scribes and attentive listeners, these priests help to ensure a smooth flow of trade goods between towns and individuals, getting fair prices for both parties and negotiating any tricky sticking points.
