I’ve always felt drawn to Lady Endurance, known more commonly as Noble Endurance since her marriage to Noble Death. Her domain over the procession of time intrigues me endlessly. As an avid reader, I’m aware that books allow us to transcend time in a way – immersing in tales from the past or imagining future worlds. Noble Endurance celebrates humanity’s drive to grow in knowledge and create. Without scholars indexing the past, how could we measure our progress? The Great Library itself, overseen by Celestial librarians, is a monument to Endurance’s ideals.

During my scholarly pursuits in the city, Endurance’s iconography stands out to me frequently. The elaborate sundials and clock faces adorning certain buildings are unmistakable, the 11 pips radiating out from the center. I admire Noble Endurance’s meticulous and thoughtful nature in managing not just libraries and librarians, but time itself. Her partnerships with other deities who report back on events remind me of my own quest to uncover observations recorded in obscure texts. I hold deep respect for this deity who values devoted archivists as much as I do. Just as the texts I uncover reveal hidden facets of the pantheon’s history, Endurance understands that properly catalogued knowledge empowers future generations.
