Welcome Brothers and Sisters of Gaia to the Sacred Archives of the Tera Mater Abbey. Here within the walls of this sacred room you will find the collected works of Gaia's Theologians about the patron goddess Gaia and her son Meili. From studies of Gaia's power to tales of her appearances before her first followers and founders of the ancient temple to bear her name you will be able to learn all there is to know about Gaia. The Sacred Archives contain written works and iconography that are considered valuable and ancient and thus they are housed in long glass display cases to protect them from the elements and human hands in the middle of the Archives. Each day one single folio of these sacred bound books is turned by an Abbey archivist wearing lint free white gloves revealing a new hand lettered continuation of the works of Gaia's earliest followers into written word.
On either side of the Archives adorning the walls are books and scrolls containing more modern works of scholars and Abbey historians about the founding of the Terra Mater Abbey and the patron goddess Gaia. It is from these floor to ceiling book cases that anyone can study the works of Gaia. Dotting the room are several oak benches and tables for reading. The collection of written works held by the Archives is ever growing and the Clerics who maintain the Archives are always looking for new works to be added to the Archives. Anyone is welcome to submit their writings about Gaia and her connection to the planet which bears her name.
The Sacred Archives of the Terra Mater Abbey awaits.

Here you will find a list of all collected iconography, myths, legends, historical writings, and theological writings. Abbey Archivists will link to new works in one of three categories: Iconography, Myths and Legends, or Historical and Theological Writings. Through these collected works we, the Children of Gaia, will better understand the works of our patron goddess and her plan for us and the people of Gaia.
