The Calcendi is the symbol of Divara, representing a chalice with a flame inside. It represents Alturión creating the universe via a fire in the empty bowl that existed before.
The symbol began as a chalice with flames inside, drawn from the original practice of literally burning a substance inside a chalice. It then simplified so that the present symbol is only barely recognisable as such.
Some depictions of the Calcendi are very elaborate but the Priestesses prefer the simpler versions.
