Bridged
Summary
Bridged is the Goddess of Freedom and Trickery, connected to sacred doors, door-based travel, luck, gargoyles, Grand Towers pennies, and bargains around freedom.
Known Details
- Notes connect Bridged to a Seaward temple where people take bets, as a goddess of freedom, trickery, luck, and gargoyles.
- Belburn goliaths treated doors as sacred to Bridged and believed Bridged freed them from Envy by sending the party from the dome.
- A Grand Towers penny placed on Bridged’s statue made her eyes glow green, then red, and sent Dirk to Seaward and apparently back to yesterday.
- Geldrin’s two pennies made Bridged’s eyes glow green and yellow, sending the group through a blue-and-white palace-like reception room outside the dome before a later door route returned them to Brookville Springs.
- In the Ashkelon offering room, Bridged appeared as a nondescript elf-like statue, sculpted as though the maker did not know who they were sculpting; the inscription described the elf woman Bridged as keeping peoples free.
- On Day 52, Geldrin opened a pathway to Bridged’s domain so a shard or night-sky part of Valentinhide could reach Bridged.
- Bridged wished to be honoured a second time, liked freedom and trickery, and said some kin had interfered despite gods agreeing not to interfere unless asked.
- Bridged said her trapped kin wanted freedom; the notes connect this to Dotharl’s dad being trapped, his granddad being lost, and Squwal.
