The Dancer (Icon)
Sometimes woman, sometimes man, but most often androgynous and ungendered like the hijras.
The Dancer is the Icon of inspiration and perseverance. The Dancer represents the bond formed in the life union between two lovers, but also unbridled lust when appearing as the Musician, playing a nine-string lyre or a cirra.
Darker folklore speaks of the Beast, representing mankind’s true nature and, according to some, her inherent evil. The Beast has no place in the temples, but some of Mira’s forest nomads worship it as the Icon of strength and portray it as a dragon-like creature with fur and nine eyes.

Sacrifices to the Dancer are a small but exquisite meal, a dance, or a beautiful song, but preferably all three combined.
