The having of faith in "The Light" is a lost and dying Religion which has its beliefs in the following of what is true and right, pure and holy. Followers of the Light believe that in the beginning of Aloria, there was nothing but a mixture of both Light and Darkness, two beings, an Archdemon, Behesael and a divine being, pure of mind and kind of heart whom name has been forgotten in time. The two beings, not having anything but their equivalence of their power alike, went into a never ending war.
The clanging sword and axe created the sounds of thunder, the collision of both a great light and dark, limitless of power, manifested itself as lightning, striking down into an abyss. The Lightning created light, as it illuminated the dark world, and so, the world took a bright blue color and the heavens were called forth. The light of the world was brought to be by love and pure emotion, and so, its mere presence bothered Behesael, whom only knew of corruption and misery. The tears of pain Behesael experienced by such purifying light, would rain upon the abyss, filling it over the many years and creating the oceans. Lightning kept striking, its heat evaporating the water and creating the clouds. From there forth, both beings saw that their brawl was but bringing nothing but shape to their world. And so, Behesael attempted to corrupt the skies, drain them from their light, and it who was pure in soul and mind, could no longer see. And so the Light fled, and contained itself under the horizon. Many years passed, the light creating dragons, dragons that could harness some of her powers, and those were:
-The Great Elder Dragons
-Wyvren Dragons
-Red Dragons
The Light had made these beings pure.
Meanwhile, Behesael's dark energy had started to condense itself into living, unholy creatures. They had dark skin, to blend with the shadows. They were to be called "Demons".
After many years of forming, The Light came out from underneath the horizon, bringing light once more. The Demons scattered, attacking blind-fully everything that moved, even the clouds and waves. Behesael was just about to vanish The Light back into the waves, but luckily the dragons attacked. Each fallen dragon would stack upon the ocean bottom, creating the ocean floor, their bodies converting to stone by The Lights power and the movement of the waves turning the upper area into sand. The fiery insides of the dragons remained intact, bringing lava to the caverns deep under the surface. When Demons fell, their magical instability would make it so that the fiery insides of the Earth erupt, creating many isles and continents. However, the dragons fiery might would not be enough, sometimes, they would have to swallow the demons. The corruption would slowly, upon their death, bring the Dakkar to life. Some were born without the might of fire, and so had to flee to the surface, were fire could not be found. They became the Naga. The many continents had been being formed for years and decades in time.
The Light, having little time, implemented small fragments of its own power by separating Light and Dark, creating day and night and so forth. The Light brought the following to life and manifestation:
Mental Sanity- Would take form of the clouds and shape of a Capricorn in its manifestation.
Power- Would take form of fire and lava.
Wisdom- Would take form of water and ice.
Courage- Would take form of the forests and life on its own.
Compassion- Would take form of the sky.
Justice- Would take form of opposites, day and night, light and dark and so on.
Honor- Would take form of the flesh that makes up all living things.
Virtue- Would take form of color, each color doomed to manifest itself onto your aura to show your levels of virtue and personality. And therefore, magic.
Kinship- Would take form of the roots of all species and blood of the ancestors shared within you, linking all to The Light.
Alliance- Would take form of ones mind.
Allegiance- Would take form of ones tongue and speech.
Faith- Would take form of ones heart. The key element in this circle of Light would take form of Estel in Elven times, worship of Estel is approved by the Followers of The Light as they think that they worship the circle, as one cannot exist without the other, via proxy. Same would go with the Old Human Gods and Union.
Feel free to ask any questions, and I will answer them if they aren't too… secret. Know that this is not an Official Religion, and is still developing. I will post more information on it through edits. Such changes will be based on the questions YOU ask. Realize, "The Main Light", (the last strand) is not to be answered via the forums, but only through In-Game role-play. I would preferyour chracter to not know of "The Main Light" as it is only taught by Faolan and his students.

The Light would later be represented by the sun and altars of Light.
Strands of The Light:
Light of Union: Focuses on Virtue, Honor, Justice and Compassion, faith the base element in all religions.
Light of Estel: Focuses on Estel, and therefore faith.
Light of Sol: Focuses on what is pure, and therefore The Light, from their own perspective.
Light of the Ancestors: Light of which worships those before them, honoring their parents and their base race if extremely religious. (Seraph if Human and Dwarf, for example)
Light of Dogma: Worships that of which is Justice, Kinship, Virtue, and Honor.
The Light: Worships the Entire circle, without personifying the elements of purity. Only Faolan Orn-Val De'Itos and his students know of the proper way of this strand. You must meet with them In-Character in order to fully learn the secrets of such. For example, Ellador is pronounced Eya Dolor by followers of this, and think that Ellador is the continent where the Tears of The Light's pain fell and froze, freezing the land. And how Faith created the Seraph and Yanar…
