The Daughters are dedicated followers and protectors of the sacred teachings of Xiosia, the Mother Goddess, who sustains us all. Each Daughter’s oath to the collective is revered to be the most binding of all, for those who take the oath to the Daughters are also binding their fate to the Great Mother.

Xiosia is the creator of all living entities in nature, birthing all plants, creatures, mountains and bodies of water. She also presides over death, for all that dies is reborn. Her stories are as ancient as the earliest Elvish lineage. The highest notion of The Daughters of Xiosia is universal love and respect for each other and all in nature. All Daughters act in peace and non-violence except in cases of hunting for food and survival [training]. When a Daughter does kill she should make amends with offerings and prayers to Xiosia and the slain entity.
A senseless killing is an act against the guild and the Great Mother.

All Daughters are committed to always taking time to introduce themselves to and assist new female arrivals fleeing into the city of Hydlaa, many of whom may be in need of tria, food and warm clothing. It is the philosophy of the guild that all females are Daughters of the Goddess, whether guilded or not.

The Daughters practice collective consensus and refuse to recognize a hierarchical structure within the guild. Every guild member has a platform to voice her opinion and make positive suggestions; all decisions are made collectively with a majority vote. Each guild member is treated with equal respect regardless of level of skill or training, we are here to support one another not to out rank each other in knowledge, power or financial status. All guild members are valuable, from prophetic priestess to hard working miner.

All Daughters are encouraged to learn the stories and sacred teachings of Xiosia, spend time meditating and divining in Jardet’s Secret Garden under the sacred Ruqua Tree and to participate in Xiosian ceremonies, rituals and festivals. Sacred times of the year for the guild and Xiosia include Mid-Unodin, a time to bless the newly planted crops and Mid-Azhord a time to celebrate and give thanks to the success of the harvest.

Please check this thread for times and dates when, and where, you may petition the DOX to join us as a sister in faith and honor of Xiosia.
