Amilara

Domain: Love, joy, celebration, community

Status: Silenced, c. 1580

Amilara's was arguably one of the most painful losses. Her faith required gathering, celebration, music, and touch. The first century of hiding made all these things dangerous. Worship collapsed because the conditions her faith needed (openness, trust, community) were exactly what the Folk could not afford. She faded slowly, and by the time anyone noticed, there was no one left who could hear her.

Ela absorbed the pastoral duties of comfort and community care, but Folk theologians widely acknowledge the fit is imperfect. Folk weddings and festivals carry a formal beauty but a faint hollowness that the oldest elves still remark on.
