Followers of <span class="FORCELINK">Goran</span> pray at the noon meal'one of the few quiet moments in their day. Prayers are often spontaneous while tapping metal and sketching ideas, sounding something like: ''<span class="ITALIC">"Father Innovation, aid me in designing this thingamagog.

''<span class="ITALIC">"Master of Metal, guide our hands. Unbind our eyes and minds to what is and let what can be shine through. Where we see a rod of metal, help us to see a device that runs an abacus by itself. Where we see water, help us to see a river-powered cow milking machine. And where we see fire, help us to remember where the alarm is, because we don't want to burn down the Academy. Your inspiration is our devotion."</span>'' | ''<span class="ITALIC">"Master of Metal, guide our hands. Unbind our eyes and minds to what is and let what can be shine through.

<span class="FORCELINK">First Augra</span> is the Day of Shared Inspiration, a day of gathering and information sharing, boasting, and demonstrations in every gnome community. Even followers of allied gods (especially <span class="FORCELINK">Dorand</span> and <span class="FORCELINK">Beryl</span>) will sometimes show up for the festivities since it is a time of the best wine, the tastiest food, and the marvels of mind, metal, and hammer. Each of the academies hosts a huge meal, starting midday and running long into the night. Tables are set up for tinkers and engineers to display their inventions. An invention finished on this day, that works as intended, is considered especially blessed. | <span class="FORCELINK">First Augra</span> is the Day of Shared Inspiration, a day of gathering and information sharing, boasting, and demonstrations in every [[gnome]] community.
