is a group of priests and priestesses from all the temples. They are spread throughout Terra and have no temple of their own. Most, they find residence in temples to Lucian or Lilith. Members of the Order can be found wherever there is a major conflict, the ill or dying, or the elderly. They provide care for the dead, preparing their bodies for whatever ceremony the person or their loved ones chose.
Those of the Order will clean the body, dress or stitch any wounds, and coordinate with whomever handles the funeral arrangements. All this, they do without speaking. Each member takes a vow when they join. No matter the season or country, these men and women wear a midlength gray robe. They keep their hair short, so as not to interfere with their work. Embroidered on their robes is a sun on the horizon.
All the denizens of Terra respect the members of the Order. It’s commonly accepted that they are given food, lodging, and protection wherever they go. To turn one away is to invite terrible misfortune on oneself and family.
