(symbol) (location) (legend) Inala
ee-NAH-lah
(obscure information outside of Ashdod, or religious circles)

Inala Inala is the most popular of the Seven Sisters, and portrayed as the most beautiful of the group, and is generally regarded as being the oldest. She is a complete hedonist, and myths featuring her are the least suitable reading for impressionable minds. She is sometimes presented as a "Goddess of Love" for the benefit of outsiders, but such sugar-coating does little justice to how she is portrayed in myth. Quite often, it involves some mortal catching her attentions, and she "blesses" this mortal with all manner of gifts ... and then ends up destroying the mortal in the end. So many Babelites apparently still see this as a great way to go, and Inala is the one goddess of the Seven Sisters most truly worshipped rather than merely appeased.

Inala is also the name of a mountain just outside of Babel, and home to a "shrine" to the goddess of the same name -- in practice, a brothel where all manner of vices are performed, many of them quite unspeakable. The "Children of Inala" are priests and priestesses born and bred into the service of this goddess, and cannot leave the priesthood except by death. It is a whispered rumor that those who are born to the "Children" who are ugly or deformed in any way are offered up as sacrifices. Those who are not "perfect" but still "usable" are sold off to the various Houses as child servants.

Rune of Inala: The Flower The rune that represents Inala in Babelite script is also known as "The Flower".
