Stella Maris is Veloria’s patron deity—a divine embodiment of both oceanic power and maternal grace. She is depicted as a radiant figure rising from the waves, crowned in coral and veiled in seafoam, her arms outstretched in blessing and command. Her gaze is said to calm tempests and stir tides, and her voice echoes in the crash of waves and the whisper of shells.
Worshippers see her as both protector and purifier. Sailors pray to her for safe passage, and mystics seek her guidance in dreams and visions. She is believed to dwell in the deepest trench of the sea, where light meets silence, and from there she watches over Veloria with unwavering compassion and divine authority. Legends tell of her walking upon the waves to rescue a drowning fleet, and of her tears turning into pearls that heal the sick.
