Church of Kalistran
The church of Kalistran hasn't created structures for worship; they gather in places of natural beauty and importance, such as glades deep in ancient woodlands or natural caverns with rich minerals and gems.
The priesthood can be helpful to travellers in the wild places they guard over, but only if their intent bares no ill will towards that natural place, miners, loggers and the like are more likely to find a priest of Kalistran working towards their demise than provide assistance.
In smaller communities that sit at the edges of the civilised places, the priesthood can often be found visiting and helping the community to reduce its impact on the natural world around them, ensuring farming and hunting practices are sustainable and friendly to the natural world.

Mythology & Lore
Kalistran born of the titans of the wild world embodies the creatures found within these untouched wildernesses, it is said that the fey creatures of the forest were created by them to protect the natural world from the encroachment of civilisation.
Kalistran taught the elven people how to live harmouniously with the natural world around them, the elven long view made them ready students who embodied the teachings she brought them.
They taught the first druids and rangers of the world how to live in harmony with these natural places and call upon the creatures of the wild for aid when needed

Tenets of Faith
Although the church of Kalistran opposes the rampant spread of civilisation, they recognise that the peoples of the world need somewhere to live and would rather work with those founding settlements to help them work with the natural world and respect the resources they will be using to survive than to attack them outright, though settlements that rampantly destroy the natural world around them will face the wraith of the powerful druids of the church who can call the natural world to defend itself from them.
They work to protect the wilds on the edges of civilisation, while discouraging its spread into the untouched ancient wild places where the firstworld bleeds through to the wild places.
Priesthood
The priesthood of Kalistran teaches those who'll listen how to live in balance with the natural world, leaving no lasting damage or impression from the presence of an outsider. They can teach advanced farming techniques, wood lore skills, and forestry management, the like of which is associated with elven culture.
Those who won't listen to their teachings about harmonious living with the natural world will find the priesthood working against the survival of their settlement, with crop failures, attacks by dangerous wild animals, failure of water supplies and other catastrophic problems.
