From publisher blurb:
Mystery cults are secret societies that exist within religious institutions. Like other secret societies, their existence is well known, but their rituals, lore, and objectives are concealed. Only the initiated are allowed access to these secrets.
This file provides an overview of mystery cults and specific details about the Cult of Demeter, one of the most important and influential deities in the Amazons vs Valkyries setting.

Oracle Mystery: Motherhood featuring Hopes and dreams, Mother's Touch and other revelations

These warrior women are tough fighters with divine spells. They serve one of the most powerful and influential temples in the world and work tirelessly to protect crops, herds, and children.
To become a Harvest Guardian and gain the full powers of Demeter's blessing, a character must first become a Champion of Demeter and serve the temple as a security officer or special agent.
Champions of Demeter and Harvest Guardians have an alignment restriction and a code of conduct which they must follow. Being dedicated to agriculture, the seasons, and nature, they are usually lawful and often neutral.
