Today, The Cups discuss another elven god – arguably, the one most worshipped by the elves, at least the ones we've seen so far. Taking a look at Mythal, we discuss her history, her role among the Evanuris, who the Dalish say she is, and how Flemeth and Andraste fit into this story. And of course, we wonder where she is now.

Today, we're launching our SEASON SEVEN, which will be a season dedicated to all things elves, elven culture, and elven religion! We're kicking it off with a deep dive on the god who begins it all–Elgar'nan. We take a look at this God of Vengeance, also known by many other names. We look at the history behind his story, what the Dalish folklore says, and so much more. Want to chime in on the conversation?
