Beliefs
The House of Hearth is centered around the worship and guidance of the Five Ethereal Pillars with the belief is that The Prophet is the chosen Voice of the Divine Five. Through visions, dreams, and communion, she is said to speak not just for the Pillars, but with them. While she denies godhood, it is said she is the bridge between the mortal realm and the divine.
The faith does not demand blind obedience, nor does it put one pillar above the others. Instead, its teachings emphasize that true harmony is not found in singular devotion to one Pillar alone, but in honoring the full cycle the Pillars complete together. Life, knowledge, freedom, fate, and death, each is a flower in the sacred hearth, and to forsake one is to let the fire die.
The religion’s scripture, recorded in the Hearthlit Testaments, is a collection of parables, sermons, visions, and personal reflections of the Prophet. Some passages are delivered in poetic verse, others in stories, each one bearing the mark of the divine. The Testaments are divided into five major books, each one reflecting the essence of a Pillar, and the “The Path Above.”

Council of the Inner Hearth
The ruling and spiritual body of Pavvaltaar, the Council of the Inner Hearth is responsible for overseeing both the religious and societal structure of the House of Hearth. It is led by The Prophet, as the Council is composed of five core members, each representing one of the Five Ethereal Pillars, chosen not by birthright or wealth, but through divine signs confirmed by the Prophet herself. These individuals are known as the Pillarbearers, and they serve as the interpretive and administrative hands of their respective gods: The Bloomkeeper (Voice of Aynor), The Moonscribe (Voice of Lunaris), The Flamewarden (Voice of Aerlion), The Threadseer (Voice of Pavv), and The Ashspeaker (Voice of Dicio).
The Prophet does not command the Council, but listens, mediates, and when needed, speaks with the divine to settle disputes or interpret matters too complex for mortal wisdom alone. In moments of crisis, the Council may enter what is called The Ember Circle, a closed, sacred gathering where fasting, prayer, and symbolic silence are observed until consensus is reached or the Prophet delivers what is believed to be the will of the Five.
