+====== Les Gardiens du Passé ======
+The **Keepers of the Past** are the religious leaders for the [[Tairnadal]] [[elves]]. They lead the Tairnadal elves in venerating their legendary ancestors, warriors who battled [[dragon]]s and [[giant]]s, and believe that their spirits live on and guide the living.
+===== Religious Practices =====
+The Keepers oversee Tairnadal coming-of-age rituals for elves, and divine what particular ancestor chooses the elf to bond with.
+Besides the coming-of-age rituals, Keepers also lead followers in services commemorating the deeds and stories of their ancestors. These services are generally not carried out in a temple, but in a circle marked on the ground by a blade. Tairnadal also commune with their ancestor spirit while meditating in the trance elves go into instead of sleeping.
+As the Tairnadal are primarily a nomadic culture, they do not have permanent temples. One exception to this is the Temple of the Ages in [[Taer|Valaestas]], where Keepers are trained.
+===== Demographics =====
+Keepers of the Past are primarily found on the subcontinent of [[Aerenal]] or in the nation of [[Valenar]] on [[Khorvaire]]. While some [[human]]s and [[half-elves]] have sought membership in the faith, Keepers are exclusively elves, and have declared that only elves can be chosen by an ancestral spirit.
