eilistreayn afterlife

Since the Chosen of Eilistraee is a religious oriented player group, naturally there is a place to have theological discussions. That is in-game religions; please leave real-world religion out of it. Debate the fine points of a certain dogma, how a church can enforce worship while staying true to its tenets or simply why one deity is better than another one is. All are free to talk about it here.

There is no direct answer, howver in general one appears to live with Eilistraee in her plane.

And serve her much as they did in life, as I understand. Like how there are always singing voices in Eilistraee's realm, leading me to believe they are the departed souls who served Eilistraee in life as bards, or members of her clergy even.

They might even help out her followers who are still living on her behalf, as in a number of books fallen priestesses have visited other followers in dreams and such. Though she is a god she has a lot on her plate, so I wouldn't put it past her ascended faithful to help out with things.

Me thinks that those singing voices are just her priestesses and priests. Like when they dance their last dance, and the Maiden herself comes to take them to her plain... Don't know about any other followers apart from clergy. Suppose they exist in her plain and (providing their devotion in life) they do whatever she choses for them to do.
