Introduction
Emerioa is the Ascendant Spirit of emotions, both positive and negative. She is emotion itself, and the mother of ten Ascendant Spirits, each of which embodies a pair of opposed emotions. She lives in Gosterra, where her home, the House of Emerioa, stands in the Mona Forest.
Nature and Influence
Emerioa has existed since the Age of Ascendance, when she was the second Ascendant Spirit to settle in Gosterra, after Ettal. Emotion in its particular forms took shape only when humans arrived in Dalel in the Great Migration; her ten children came into being at that time, as the first settlers landed in Gosterra.
Every emotion has a spirit. A passing feeling, such as a moment of anger or a flash of envy, forms a Nascent Spirit that fades as the feeling does. A feeling held for a long time or shared by many people, such as a long grief or an old resentment within a family, can become a Mature Spirit.

Emerioa's ten children are an exception among the Ascendant Spirits: they did not arise from the interaction of the Primordial Spirits but from Emerioa herself. Each embodies a pair of opposed emotions:
