#be loyal to nocturnal (namira's sister and goddess of thieves and also

[iteats]

there is often this little devil dude (i think around the height of an average human's knees or so?) depicted beside namira's likeness at shrines –– while this is likely something, someone, in particular (to expound on at a late date because i haven't decided on the particulars) i think it's also utilized as a symbol for the fact that namira breeds a particular style of worshipper; something extremely loyal to a fault. she often plays this sort of caretaker role for many of those who follow her, who are often those shunned by society (again, beggars are canonically blessed by her, as are those with disease, those disregarded by society). she is deep and consuming with her love for those who worship her. she moves mountains for them, she protects them from evildoers. this in turn calls for a special sort of relationship between her and them, one which you don't necessarily see at least as often or to the same degree with other daedra. patron saint of lost causes...
