I'm currently working on the backstory for my Koada'Dal conjuror, Renita Angelus. One of the things I need to know in order to write it is how Tunare's teachings usually go. Does anyone here know how a typical Tunarian sermon would sound?

Hug the mountains, hug the trees, plant some flowers, on your knees.  Feed the birds, plants some seeds, fish the ocean, on your knees!  Cross the valley, feel the breeze, bask in sunshine ON YOUR KNEES!  Aaaaaaaaaaahmen!

I *think* ,(there is no specific canon or 'commandments' in the lore I can think of), that a sermon would talk about balance. 

The natural world and all the creations therein, have a role to play in maintaining that balance.  When the balance is shifted too far, then cataclysmic events occur as nature strives to re-establish it.  At a certain point, if the shift is too far, or too long, then the entire natural system collapses, and everything dies.

The sermon would not be about 'tree-hugging', or an admonition not to hunt deer, or to 'save the whales' per-se.  That type of extreme 'naturism' would be more like the credo of the Unkempt Druids, and a total misinterpretation and perversion of the concept of balance; in actuality contributing to the inbalance, (and therefore opposed to Tunare and her teachings).

Tunare is the most benign of the Gods.  Or at least the most vocal of the benign ones =)

Despite her own worshippers killing her over and over in Growth, she blamed Rallos Zek, not the mortals.  Of all the Gods she seemed the least interested in destroying them.
