History
According to Halan tradition, it was a collective of nine deities that brought the world into creation from Chaos' mists. However, the other gods then stood back and left mortal kind to make their own decisions. Hala alone of the Nine Gods saw how mortals lacked insight to make the right decisions, so she came back to alleviate the world's burdens. To a cadre of 13 men and 13 women, she instructed the secrets of the Weave.[3][4] From there, her secretive church grew.
Hala's faith is noted by Van Richten and Marena to be several hundreds of years older than the Church of Ezra, 
although given the Demiplane of Dread's short history, it is uncertain how much of her church's existence comes from outside the Land of Mists or is even false history. Some historians posit that Ezra was a servant of the Church of Hala prior to her own divine ascension.
