Velkara, Goddess of Justice and Mercy

It is said Velkara was once imprisoned by those who believed their cause to be righteous, and in her captivity she came to understand a truth few can bear: not all chains are unjust, and not all freedom is deserved. When she broke free, she did not cast aside judgment, but embraced it, vowing to weigh every bond with perfect balance. Velkara's followers walk a careful path, seeking not to free blindly nor condemn without thought, but to judge with fairness and purpose. Judges, wardens, and those who stand between law and compassion often offer her quiet prayers, for she is said to favor not the loudest plea, but the one most deserving. Many who bind others in cruelty have felt their chains turned against them, while those wrongly held have found their bonds mysteriously weakened, as if broken by Velkara's just hand.
