The Seven-Pointed Star is the holy text of the Faith of the Seven. It is divided up into sections, based on the different aspects of the faith, such as the Maiden's Book.[1]

Miscellaneous

It is stated in The Seven-Pointed Star that spirits, wights, and revenants cannot harm a pious man, so long as he is armored in his faith.[2] It is written that as men bow to their lords, and lords to their kings, so kings and queens must bow before the Seven Who Are One.[3] Septon Meribald cannot read or write, but he knows The Seven-Pointed Star by memory.
