Most often called simply Inspiration, the church that follows <span class="FORCELINK">[[Ilsare]]</span> has very little structure. The only official temple is the <span class="FORCELINK">Breath of the Muse</span> overlooking the <span class="FORCELINK">River of Reflection</span> on <span class="FORCELINK">[[Mistone]]</span>. Only at the Breath of the Muse can one be guaranteed to find a Nave, a follower of the [[Heartsong]] who wears all six bands of Ilsare. What exists as structure is found here in poetry, song, and novels dedicated to the ideals of Lady Muse. There is no one book that defines the faith, because there are too many writers to narrow down the ideas. There is no single song of Ilsare, because any song sung from the heart will do. There are only halls, rooms, sculptures, plays, songs and dances, jewelry, woodworking, and a dedication to the ideals of the six bands. | |||
The closest to doctrine is the Six Bands of the Heart, an epic poem by Nave Missier El'dominae, the second Nave of Ilsare and one of the faith's greatest poets. While the entire epic is too large to reproduce here, the highlights define five of the six bands: moment, creation, reflection, passion, and inspiration. The sixth band is faith and is rarely attained. | The closest to doctrine is the Six Bands of the Heart, an epic poem by Nave Missier El'dominae, the second Nave of Ilsare and one of the faith's greatest poets.
