Mirelda is the jovial, mother of the grum race. She is endlessly friendly, laughs often and spends a great deal of time cooking. She is a master of all home making skills. She appears often on Khoras, but always in a grum town and always in some disguise. She often visits her priests' establishments and aids the poor.
During the Great War, Mirelda operated a tavern which, through its activities and popularity, grew to be an inn, hospital, "neutral zone" and base of operations for the Traxx League. This establishment, known as Mirelda's Cauldron, housed many famous individuals, nursed sick soldiers back to health and more. It became quite well known during the Age of Chaos and the war, but during the Age of Sorrow, Mirelda died and Mirelda's Cauldron fell into ruin. Many centuries later, several priests of Mirelda rebuilt the ruined tavern and reopened Mirelda's Cauldron. It now serves, unofficially, as the center of the religion.
Priests of Mirelda are common in many communities throughout the world, always one to a community. A Mireldan priests only "adopts" a community if it did not formerly have one or if the current priest dies. Each priest assumes care of the community and establishes a "safe home" where anyone can get a hot meal and a good night's sleep. In smaller communities, these establishments resemble bed and breakfasts or small inns. In larger communities, Mireldan priests often work together to operate large homes for the poor that charge little or nothing and sustain themselves with contributions only.
