The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995

Kynareth, Goddess of Air, is the deity of the heavens, the winds, the elements, and the unseen spirits of the air. Kynareth is a member of the Eight Divines/Nine Divines and is the strongest of the Sky spirits. Patron of sailors and travelers, Kynareth is invoked for auspicious stars at birth and for good fortune in daily life. In some legends, she is the first to agree to Lorkhan's plan to invent the mortal plane, and provides the space for its creation in the void. Further, she is associated with rain, a phenomenon said not to have occured before the removal of Lorkhan's divine spark.

She also issued the famed Lord's Mail, Armor of Morihaus, Gift of Kynareth, which was recently acquired by the hero of Daggerfall. Lord's Mail is known to regenerate the wearer's health, cure poisons, and even grant resistance to magics.

She is known as Kyne to the Nords, and is the widow of Shor, better known as Lorkhan. The rain is said to be the weepings from Kyne as she mourns the loss of her beloved Shor, since rain did not appear until after his divine spark was forcibly removed.
