[OOC Note]: These are free for anyone to use in Roleplay, imagine them as being typical 'Estellian' prayers for the typical Estel worshipper. One might also note that these are rooted in the Cielotharan Sect of the Faith of Estel, hence, since it largely does not concern Estel's courts, one might be able to use them for general purposes. I wrote this up after feeling inspired by the Faith of Estel Lore and subsequent Cielothar Lore.
Prayer for the Morning
Typically stated as one wakes up in the morning, as the sun rises from the horizon;
"Heavenly Mother, through which all life on Aloria flows and is owed their radiance, I shall be your image, and in your unquestionable divinity shall bask in your light. Bless me with the light of your unending mercy, as the sun kisses the horizon, so shall your motherly embrace bring warmth and light to my day."

Prayer for the Night
Typically stated as one is prepared to go to sleep at night, just after the sun sets;
"Heavenly Mother, as your light fades from the sky, protect me with your merciful embrace so shall I see a peaceful and comforting rest. As today I have followed your will, and abided by your teaching, I shall now rest with all that I have learned with your divine guidance."
Prayer for Dining
Typically stated before dining or indulging in any food presented before the worshipper;
"Heavenly Mother, blessed infinitely am I with the gifts of nature you have provided to our world, our table, our harvests, we give our thanks to the inspiration and daily replenishment that we have been provided with. As shall I appreciate the bounty and food you have appreciated, as shall I forever protect all life with which we are provided to have such gifts."
Prayer for Love
Typically stated between lovers, towards each other and towards the Goddess;
"Heavenly Mother, protect my heart with your infinite light, and bless our union with unending happiness. Shall our union be within your holy name and teaching, and shall our union be thereby blessed by your motherly guidance until the end of our days."
Prayer for Plantlife Care
Typically stated by gardeners and those who seek to cultivate floral life in general;
"Heavenly Mother, blessed is the gifts of the natural world which you have provided, blessed is the hand which cultivates life ever so mercifully in your image. Provide this garden with your motherly and divine protection, in the morn when the sun kisses the sky, let your light shine gently on the flowers and vegetation which we have lovingly crafted and will forever cultivate until the end of it's cycle."
Prayer for Animal Care
Typically stated by those who cultivate for animals, cattle, and the like;
"Heavenly Mother, blessed is the gifts of the natural world which you have provided, blessed is the hand which cultivates life ever so mercifully in your image. Provide our friends in nature with comfort and peace, such that they may bask in the similar light which you mercifully provide our souls with every day. Let their lives be joyous and prosperous, as shall ours by the hand by which we mercifully harvest."
Prayer for Repentance
Typically stated when a devout worshipper commits an act against the faith, unwillingly;
"Heavenly Mother, blessed in your infinite mercy and forgiveness. Pray with us sinners and guide us back to your light which we have forsaken. Never shall your mercy be ignored, and never shall I make attempts to stray from your guidance and holy path. Bring us mercifully back on the path towards holiness, and so shall we sinners all be blessed with your mercy once more."
Prayer for Magic
Typically stated by Sorcerers and Mages when preparing to cast their magic;
"Heavenly Mother, from which all magic of purity flows. Blessed are those who harness the rivers of the Exist, and blessed are those who do so with the powers granted ever so mercifully by your divine hand, who use such to further your cause. Provide your guidance, as I draw from my power to change Aloria as you have in the name of your infinite divinity."
Prayer for Rituals
Typically stated by Olt'vven Ritualists before engaging in ritual;
"Heavenly Mother, from which all magic of purity flows. Blessed are those who harness the rivers of the Exist; and blessed are those who do so with the words and scripture that you have ever so mercifully given to us. Let your words of light illuminate the darkness, and purge the world of the evils which you and your court ever so dutifully defend against. Provide your guidance, as I draw from your power to change Aloria."
