The Mother

A being who claims to be the Mother, the goddess worshipped by some elves on Arclent, confronts Simon in the Forest of the First Root, delivering a shock to his religious views, and perhaps an even greater one to Carina's.

Whoever she is, she appears to be a rather angry and contemptuous person who is fiercely protective of her "children" and deems even uncorrupted humans unworthy of them.

Story
She appears to Simon in a brief flash when the party is advancing in the Forest of the First Root, trying to protect the Elven kingdoms from the seed of corruption dropped on them by the forces of the Incubus King. She is very unhappy with Simon's presence there and the fact that he has been embracing "her children", but she fails to destroy him and regretfully allows him to continue his current task. To everyone else, the whole conversation appears as a momentous touch of "holy power".

After returning to their elf ally's headquarter, Simon describes his experience to the party. The discussion causes the succubi to salivate over the possibility of "getting" a goddess, but Carina's faith in Ivala is somewhat shaken, as she has unquestionably felt a different divine power.

Later in the story, she takes a more proactive stance, talking directly to Orilise and the Mother's Guard, pushing the latter towards more aggressive policies. Her conversation with Orilise shows that she isn't all-knowing.

She's the most interventionist of the goddesses, talking directly to characters on multiple occasions.
 * She talks to Simon near the First Root, which is his first encounter with a goddess.
 * She intervenes in the fight between the Doom King and the Fucklord.
 * There's a missable encounter between her and Orilise during the Elven Negotiations part of the Thenours conflict.
 * She's seen talking directly to Melymyn after the Fucklord's announcement, and seems to have an active role in the Mother's Guard leadership.
 * She whispers to the Potion Hermit encouraging her to help the Guard and breed more elves.
 * She warns Riala, Altina, Hilstara, and Megail to leave the forests during the Incubus War, and is only narrowly persuaded not to force the issue with promises to inform and help the elves.
