T'Vet

T'Vet was a female deity known to the Vulcan civilization.

She was considered a goddess though it was not clear whether she was a real person or not though she the patron saint of the warrior clans. Her worship was already old during the time of Surak and many of the attacks done against his community devoted to logic and peace were done so in T'Vets name. Whilst Suraks philosophy of logic prevailed, an active shrine dedicated to her still existed within the Llangon Mountains as Suraks ways did not seek to destroy the old ways.

T'Vet represented the female force toward racial survival and in the ancient days she was percieved as a protective force for warriors in their battles for food and water. Prayers were made to her to keep the women and children of the clan alive through the summer times. As Suraks teachings became more widespread, the people began to cooperate instead of making war which allowed them to use irrigation to plant crops instead of rely on animal meat. This led to a diminishment of war and farmine which in turn led to T'Vets worshippers dwindling in number with only a single shrine left in future years.

The worship of T'Vet and the philosophy of Surak existed side by side. Even by the modern era, ceremonies from T'Vets rituals were adapted by future Vulcans for ceremonies that were still practiced.
