The '''Allmother''' is a [[Hallandren]] [[Returned]] on [[Nalthis]].
 
== Appearance and Personality ==
She is one of the four returned in possession of [[Lifeless]] commands{{book ref|wb|26}} and is the goddess of matrons and families.{{book ref|wb|34}} Her core security phrase is "Verdant Bells."
 
She appears old,{{book ref|wb|30}} with white hair and a wrinkled face, and is, in fact, the eldest of the gods in bodily age. She is also stocky for a goddess. Allmother tries to emulate the [[Returned]] of old by not simply answering petitioners with a yes or no, but rather helping them to the extent of her abilities. This is in part because she fears to lose her worshippers, and consequently her access to [[Breath|Breaths]].{{book ref|wb|42}} She also keeps to herself and doesn't attend many court assemblies or listen to debates.{{book ref|wb|47}}
