Symbol    Golden heart
Domains    Life

Hanali was a being of timeless beauty and benign nature, she always forgave minor transgressions and felt delighted in rewarding her followers with the joy of unexpected love and affection.

She embodied romance, beauty, love, and joy in elven spirits, she was, however, flawed with mild vanity and a flighty nature. Celebrations tend to be wild with a lot of dancing. 

Although she rarely appeared to her faithful, Hanali took joy in seeing the growth of love among elves, and she often protected young lovers in secret. 

She is honored by collecting or tending beautiful things, whether art or flower gardens or decorated furniture, etc. Their greatest celebrations/;revels were held every month beneath the bright light of the full moon. Such holy days were known as, Secrets of the Heart, as romantically involved participants were said to experience the full bloom of their affections on such nights, allowing them to evaluate the strength of their feelings. Likewise, the inner beauty of celebrants visibly manifested as a rosy glow in their cheeks and eyes for days thereafter. Offerings of objects of great beauty were made to Lady Goldheart during such holy festivals. It wasn't uncommon for artists to unveil their latest work at such holy days, nor was it rare for young lovers to either pledge their love secretly or proclaim it to all assembled, as doing so was said to invite Hanali's favor.

Many humans still worship/honor her on a regular basis, the most still-remembered of the old gods.
