I saw that Molech has no gender but took it as it could be used interchangably he/she. What should Asherah use instead? Just God or the many-armed God? Also, details included may change pending our PM conversation!

As she spoke her name for the other, she watched a strange expression cross her face. She had been named for her father's background, her now deceased sibling had been named for the same. Her two other siblings had been named for her mother's background. Her parents had followed the word of a god, but had never given this god a name. They were simply "GOD". They had made offerings of their meat to their GOD, begging that they be looked upon with kindness. Her parents had spoken of sacrifice needing to be made, which is why they shared the food. She knew her parents both wanted to create a pack and share the word of GOD, but they had never gotten the chance. She'd never asked after her name, nor truly had she asked after GOD. Though she had prayed with her family, there had always been some kind of element missing in their faith. Some prayers were choppy and halting, some were stopped midway with no explanation save shared fearful glances between mother and father. She'd always felt there was something strange about her parent's GOD, but had never known what.

As such,  she was unaware of the importance of her name, nor the significance it would have to the female before her. The whisper of her name sent a chill through her, as she stared at the female, confused.

The other's words made her eyes grow wide, surprise etching itself across her face. "Named for the very goddess who is molech's beloved." Her throat was dry and her mouth gaped in wonder. How had she not known? She'd never thought to ask her parents where her name had come from. Was it possible they too had worshipped this Molech? Her heart thundered in her ears and truly now she felt chosen, she believed she had been lead here, lead home. Mere coincidence could not explain this. She was stunned further when the other bow before her and then rose laughing, kissing her cheeks. Tears came to Asherah's eyes, of joy and shock and gratitude. Molech had guide her steps her entire way here, he had watched her and helped and when she finally lay ready to surrender someone had come to help her find the Way, once and for all.

She joined the other in shocked laughter, shaking her head once before nodding. "Yes, yes, thank you." She said tearfully, the drops falling from her eyes and rolling down her red cheeks. "I am honored." She returned the other's kisses to her cheeks and stepped forward to follow her, to follow the Malkaria. To follow Molech.
