	The Emissary of the Low Sun is a goddess of boundaries, thresholds, decisions, and the acts of falling asleep and waking, times in which the goddess is thought to be most active. She is the change between things and especially the change that is intentionally brought about, and as such she is closely connected to wise rulership. The Emissary guides her followers in moving forward, nudging them when they linger in place out of fear ~~of change~~, as the goddess abhors stagnancy. When she opens doors, when she draws new boundaries, she expects her followers to make a choice - to cross them, ideally, or at least to retreat, but never to remain at the threshold out of doubt and indecision.

	Nearly all worshipers of the Emissary of the Low Sun can be found in the Eastern Chaskan city-states, and in particular in the inland reaches around [[Karrhae]], [[Ivory Hill]], and [[Kotharat]] - the deity has effectively no presence in the larger cities of the coast. Her cults tend to be somewhat reclusive, rarely showing their faith publicly and giving offerings to the goddess only at small shrines in hidden ritual sites. Apart from these shrines, places like city gates, entrances to homes, beds, and other such locations are considered particularly important to the goddess, and small inscriptions to her are often carved above or next to them.
