Mother Songbird is a dead Hour, as much as Hours can be dead. She has gone to Nowhere, and thus has limited influence in the world. She was a mother to many Hours, and so she is the patron of all mothers. But it was childbirth that killed her, so she curses the immortal parents with alukicy.

Description
History
In the early days of Man, or perhaps even before them, Mother Songbird descended from the Glory with the Old Wyrm, her male counterpart and lover. Their couplings brought forth new gods for the fledgling mankind and Mother Songbird cared for them with all her love, even those that would come to be scorned by others. Even those that would refuse her care. Even those that would do her harm. And inevitably, tragedy struck. In giving birth to the Demiurge, a grand power of Forge, Mother Songbird suffered a terrible wound and soon went Nowhere. Then her husband followed her. Neither returned for a long while, until Mother Songbird clawed her way back on broken wings, shrouded in lavender.
Appearance
Mother Songbird is, as her name suggests, a songbird. A songbird of titanic size, that her wings may comfort each of her children. In life, her feathers shone with brilliant colour, and some reflected the light of the Glory from whence she came. But Nowhere has drained these colours from her, and red blood is all that remains to stain her wings. Her wings constantly shed petals, purple things that clung to her in Nowhere, and refuse to leave.
Principles
She wields Grail, for the torment of childbirth and the curse of alukicy, but in some part also for the wholesome desire between lovers. And she wields Heart, so that she may protect her children.
Worship
Mothers sometimes invoke her name to bless their children, and the Alukites are known to curse her in rage.
