Mother Songbird is was once a dead Hour, as much as Hours can be deadand had limited influence on the world. She has gone to since returned from Nowhere, and thus has limited influence in inflicts her will upon the worldwith savage grief. She mourns the loss of her husband. She mourns the loss of her child. 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.

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 inevitablyMother Songbird's penultimate child, tragedy struckthe Briarsalt, did not live past its conception. It passed into Nowhere within moments, and the two titans of creation were driven mad with grief. In It was prophesied that if the two had another child, Mother Songbird would be the next casualty. But they ignored the warnings. They coupled again, and 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.
