Editing Nesirie (section)

==Worshippers==
Nesirie's followers believe the sea to be the lifeblood of the earth, and that the cycle of life and life of every [[human]] is reflected in its ebb and flow, along with lesser cycles like that of night and day. They help others understand and accept these cycles, along with helping them in dealing with grief. Many of them also work to preserve ruins and other works of the past, as they are said to guard over the spirits of the dead. Her followers often call for her protection against storms, sea monsters, and other realted hazards. Eve of the Dead is the main holy day of the Lady of Mourning, when the dead are remembered and those in mourning are comforted. The Masetians are also remembered this day and their relics are put on display.

Nesirie's church is roughly the same in every land, with the exception of the name used and some rites and ceremonies. The [[cleric]]s often write down the local history, as only through memories of those left behind can a spirit find rest. They also bless new ships, take care of lighthouses, and use their magic to calm the weather when needed.

===Eastern Temple of Nesirie===
The church in Aerenwe, and the center of her worship in Anuire. They worship Nesirie less as the goddess of the sea, and more as the goddess of self-reliance.

===Holy Temple of Nasri===
The church in Ghamoura, whose [[Theocracy|high priest rules the land with an iron fist]]. The church acknowledges other gods, but their worshippers are put to death, and the local inquisition works root them out, along with finding other [[heretic]]s, meaning priests of gods other than Nasri, and spellcasters. The high priest, Markhab el-Aldezar, also dreams of bringing the faith to the local "hedonists and degenrates".

===Sailing Song of Neira===
The church in Müden. Mainly focused in appeasing the superstitions of the local sailors, they're also affliated with Melisande Reaversbane, the admiral of Müden's Royal Fleet, as where ever she has authority, the temples follow soon.

===Temple of the Ancients===
The remains of the Masetian church of Nesirie. Alongside their regular duties and beliefs, they also worship Nesirie as the patron of the lost Masetians, keeping their language alive in their sermons and looking after their relics and memory.
