The Heart

Ego, Passion, the Push, - The Heart Core Alignment: Destructive Neutral Domains: Emotion, Beauty, Fire, Ambition, Earth   Born from the red half of the Balance’s shattered Gem, that flew into the magma and fires of the new mountains brought from the shattering. The Heart burst from the flames of new life and has always been brash and forward in the path they handled life. The emotional core of the Twin Gods, the fires of Kalio’s Soul burn in the Heart. The First Heart exploded from the Magma of the Spine, taking a blade within moments of her birth, slaying monsters with her first breath. It took nearly a week to calm her rage from the splitting, but when her temper finally cooled she became an impassioned caregiver to all. She advocated the needy and those who suffered injustices, driven by some desire to make more, do more, and become more. There’s a rather large following of the Heart in many societies, and the passionate and romantic lifestyle the Heart has perpetuated across many lifetimes appeals to people young and old across Kalio. Sometimes quick prayers are thrown out to the Heart in moments of fear to ask for courage, while others will attempt to invoke their blessings in courtship or even more sordid affairs. She is also considered the patron of lust, and as such many bordellos, no matter their patronage or service’s gender and preference in their partner, have shrines to the Heart somewhere on site.   Core Tenants of the Heart’s Faith: 10 seconds of Bravery is all it takes for something amazing to bloom and grow. Seize your moment. Love is a beautiful unbridled emotion. Do not let anyone dictate its path beyond yourself. Logic has its time and place, but if you lead with emotion and your desires, you will live a life where you have few regrets.
