Aelrith

Aspect	Mist and Fog

Aelrith is an Ascendant Spirit born from the union of Jala and Oras, encompassing all mist and fog. Revered in [[Urth-Kelai]] her presence is marked by atmospheric distortion and the softening of boundaries, both physical and metaphysical.

Nature and Influence

Aelrith is born of Jala and Oras and exists where substance becomes vapor. Aelrith can be seen within the mists themselves. She gathers in hollowed spaces, cloaked ridges, and mist-covered paths.

Realm

Aelrith does not dwell within one fixed realm. Instead, she is said to move constantly through the mist and fog in the liminal space between realms. Certain sites, like Urth-Kelai or other mist-thick passes in the Murazkar Range, are believed to brush against this space, enabling communion with Aelrith’s essence.

Osia

Practitioners who attune to Aelrith use breathforms to access nascent spirits of mist and fog. Aelrithia is also used to confuse enemies or render spaces unreadable.

Significance and Worship

Aelrith's cult is the strongest in the Murazkar Range and nearby Vaelthar, but holds deep reverence among those who dwell in other mistbound regions.

 |Nature and Influence=Aelrith is not a spirit of form, but of transition. Her influence is most potent in spaces of concealment and ambiguity—fog-shrouded paths, fading memories, echoing caverns, and spiritual waystations. Travelers report her presence as a feeling of being watched gently, or as glimpses of graceful motion just beyond vision. Her touch is said to cause silence to deepen and memory to blur or soften.
 |Relationship with Other Elements=While not directly aligned with a single elemental quadrant, Aelrith’s domain overlaps with Vapor, Unformed Echo, and Tonal Dispersion. She is considered the transitional counterpart to spirits of stone, order, and fire, such as those worshiped in [[Kar-Thal]]. Aelrith’s domain softens, erodes, and veils rather than constructs or resists. She does not oppose form—but delays, obscures, or transforms it.
