Selene
Selene is the goddess of Winter and one of the four Primordials. She is also known as the Wise Woman, the Winter Witch, Keeper of Secrets, Father Frost, and the Winter Wizard. In mythology, she is said to have created the Wheel of Rebirth, and is often cast as a rival of Gaelenir, hiding the secrets Gaelenir seeks to uncover.
Legends
Selene features prominently in Roamer folktales. It is said that Selene hid the secrets of all knowledge in the moon, and that she descends from the heavens on the Winter Solstice, resting on Mount Oritaun for a night before departing with the dawn.
In Aldin mythology, Selene is said to have hidden her secrets in the Well of Knowledge at the bottom of the sea. Storms at sea are said to be caused by arguments between Selene and Gaelenir over what knowledge should be revealed to mortals, and that one day, when all souls return to the Eternal Dance, the rivalry between the two gods will turn to love.
