They can--? Well--They'd be wrong!

[ Even if she doesn't know what they said, the idea that someone would say that Andruil was something else completely is enough to aggrieve Beleth. You can practically hear her puff up in indignation. ]

Andruil is the goddess of the moon, who taught the elves how to respect the animals, and who gave us the Way of the Three Trees. The Way of the Arrow: Fly straight, but do not waver. The Way of the Bow: Bend, but do not break. And the Way of the Forest: We are stronger as one than apart. These are the ways of the Hunter, the one who follows the path of Andruil.

She is the mother of hares and hawks, sister of the moon. The lover of Ghilan'nain, who was once of the People, but came to be the mother of Halla when her beloved turned her into a Creator.

[ Andruil wasn't even her patron goddess, but as a hunter, she felt agitated that anyone would dare speak lies about her. After she said her piece, she closed her eyes, willing herself to be calm. No use in babbling to a shemlen. ]

But I suspect you already know those tales.
