Eluus is the Maetah Goddess of Vegetation and Fertility. Her colour is red, sacred number 4, and scared animal the goat. In modern times she is seen as the source of the wild, chaotic, and dangers of the world by the priests of Aegaevaligne. She is the siste of Ubo and Lob, and the adversary of Thedine. Eluus is said the be the favoured child of Mustyoch, the God of Blood and Life. Priests were almost always specifically devoted to Eluus, though they would inherit the duties of Lob or even Thedine if none of their devotees were present. It was common for women, especially widows and those who lost their children to serve Eluus, and many would act healers and midwives for the village. Women who were pregnant, hoping to become pregnant, or had ill children would keep an idol to Eluus hidden below their (or their sick child's) bed. This is still in practice in Argaevaligne, as is the tradition of burying an idol below the ground upon a house is built. Children born with red-hair are considered bless by Eluus and to bound for strength and good health.
Prayers to Eluus are said at dawn, and weekly worship is done before dawn at the beginning of the work week. Annual feasts are held at the beginning of spring, midsummer, and at harvest time. The central act of the spring celebration is for worshippers to have sex in their fileds the night before planting. It is common for priesta and priestesses of Eluus to participate, usually in exhcange for an offering to the temple. During the summer celebrations, sacrifices of a young calf are offered to the god, slaughtered by the local priest, and left in the ceter of fields to be devoured by birds. If the whole carcass was gone by morning, the field was especially blessed by the goddess.
