Alessa, the first child of the First Gods, is known as "The Mournful." A moon-aspected deity, she represents the element of Fire and is associated with Autumn and the cardinal direction West. | |||
Alessa’s title stems from her grief upon witnessing the first death of a mortal creation. In her sorrow, she created the final four celestial heavens, reserved for the souls of Mundus's mortal children to rest after their time on the world ends. | |||
Alessa is often depicted as a pale young woman with crimson eyes and raven black hair, wearing a black dress. In places of worship and mourning, she is often depicted with her hands covering her eyes. Despite being the Goddess of Death, she is regarded as a compassionate and loving deity who guides souls to their eternal resting places. She is also believed to protect the living, sometimes preventing death for those she deems worthy. | |||
