Eu-Demrris-Tenemlor
Anyone claiming to have seen Eu is actually referring to the triple form, Eu-Demrris-Tenemlor... whose name is frequently shortened to Eu. This can be confusing for outsiders, but the Prydaen have no trouble keeping it straight.
Eu-Demrris-Tenemlor represents the totality of mortal experience. He (or she) appears mainly to clan elders and priests -- or their non-Prydaen equivalents -- in the form of a renowned ancestor. His appearance to a younger person is usually an indication that they are destined for great things.
His symbol, the Triquetra, is a triple knot that can vary in form as much as the god himself.
