Lethis

Lethis was a major goddess in the Thauzunian Orthodoxy, associated with birth, beginnings, and biological continuity. In pre-Fall belief, Lethis did not represent fertility in a symbolic or celebratory sense, but the factual emergence of new life. Her domain governed conception, gestation, and birth as processes that ensured the continuation of society rather than personal fulfillment. Birth was treated as a structural necessity, not a miracle.
  Orthodox doctrine framed reproduction as a civic function as much as a personal one. Lineage, inheritance, and population stability were believed to depend on orderly beginnings overseen by Lethis. Complications in birth were not interpreted as divine judgment or failure of faith, but as natural risk inherent to biological processes. Lethis did not intervene to guarantee success; her authority lay in defining the process itself.
  Lethis was closely associated with midwifery, genealogical recordkeeping, and early-life care. Pre-Fall teachings emphasized accurate documentation of births, parentage, and lineage as essential to legal and social order. A birth unrecorded was considered incomplete in an institutional sense. Lethis reinforced continuity by ensuring that new lives entered existing systems of identity and obligation.
  No knowledge of Lethis survives into the post-Fall era. There are no remaining references to her name, role, or associated practices in modern Vey’Zari society. The Thauzunian Orthodoxy itself is unknown, and with its collapse, all structured understanding of Lethis vanished. She is not remembered, worshiped, or reinterpreted in any form.
