The Eight Lunar Realms and their Deities—Arcana
Relationships of The Eight
The Nine Lunar Deities preside over the different types of magic and are separate from the traditional pantheon of Silencia. They are all related, considering themselves brothers and sisters even though the method of their creation is unknown.
Truly Immortal
The Lunar Deities are the only deities who are currently known to be truly immortal. While the deities of the traditional pantheon live forever, they can be killed with sufficient power. This is not true for the Lunar Deities, however some scholars believe that a way to remove them, these are the scholars that study the Lost Moon.

Hester
Hester is the Lady of Divination and Druidic magic. She has skin the color of grass and hair like pine needles. Her eyes are pools of vivid yellow, like that of a dandelion. She is often depicted wearing a simple dress woven of leaves with a gemstone in her forehead. She is often mistaken for the goddess of nature.
Contrary to popular belief druids do not follow Hester. While she created Druidic magic she did it as a gift to Bernadette, the goddess of nature, for saving her life. Most of Hester's servants are teachers and professors who wish to guide their pupils toward greatness.
