Prayers to [[Shindaleria]], due to most of her [[clerics]] being sea elves and spending most of their time in the water, aren't often heard. They are however sometimes written in the corals and rock walls of her shrines.

===== Holy Days =====


Mother Ocean doesn't really have widely recognized holy days, but individual sea elf communities celebrate certain days in her name. One time that those faithful to Shindaleria do find especially holy is that period when the seven stars of the wave twinkle in a running harmony. To those familiar with the sight, it is called the Remembrance, and it is reported to be how the constellation of Shindaleria first appeared on the southern horizon when she claimed her spot in the heavens. At this time, her faithful give thanks to her [[fortitude]] and wisdom against the odds and offer prayers to her continued [[strength]].
