	<blockquote>In Odcoru it was never odd to see storytellers finish a tale and then fall to their knees, hands on the ground, in what was considered an expression of thanks to Enelne. When students successfully completed a lesson, they would also give thanks in this fashion, because Enelne is the Goddess of wisdom and knowledge. Ever since the migration, Rakash normally face west when continuing this tradition as if contact were made through the land and nature. The Rakash have a saying; "Uz zinat cik zu jurs kas jusu dzuaws recitawt vut Enelne vislavaka davana" (To know how to use what you learned is Enelne's best gift).</blockquote>		<blockquote>In Odcoru it was never odd to see storytellers finish a tale and then fall to their knees, hands on the ground, in what was considered an expression of thanks to Enelne.

			<blockquote>Rakash believe that no wedding is properly done unless a symbol of Enelne is somehow included in the ceremony. Nowadays, though not as often as in Odcoru, couples spend the morning before the wedding carefully capturing butterflies to release at the start or end of their wedding service, since it is thought that freeing the butterflies will cause Enelne's eye to turn beneficently towards them. The hood of the outer cloak, or rantija, is often heavily embroidered with intricate butterflies in the hope that Enelne might look down and bless the marriage. Actually, Enelne's butterfly flits across many a Rakash garment, especially those worn by infants, and no home tapestry is considered complete without a butterfly worked into the scene. To kill a butterfly is said to cause three years' bad luck.</blockquote>

	<blockquote>One story often told is of her turning a stream to raging rapids when she was offended. That incident involved a group of strangers hunting butterflies.

			Excerpt from [[Rakash Traditions and Dawvs (book)]]:<br \>
			<blockquote>Enelne is the Goddess of all natural things found beneath the skies. From the smallest insect or plant to the leader of the pack, Enelne watches over all growth, be it visible or within the soul. Hers is the name petitioned by the farmer for good crops as well as by the lady of the house that her cub may have a gentle birth, a good memory, and a long life. Enelne is fond of the guardians of knowledge and, it is said, looks kindly on scholars and those who maintain the Rakash traditions by sharing and retelling their stories.</blockquote>

			<blockquote>Followers of Enelne are often found outdoors kneeling, facing west with their palms flat upon the ground as if seeking to make contact with her through nature. Her symbol is the butterfly. It is wise not to tempt Enelne to display her wrath.</blockquote>
