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.


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…

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.
 
No offence (love the idea), but if this gets added to the lore page while Nagrecian isn't....WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A PROBLEM :D.
 
Nah, Nynthias is da bomb. (Taken from wiki page)
Patriarch: Nynthias
Beliefs: This religion has been here since the dawning of time, The religion that lets you be at peace with the world and everything that's in it. To be surrounded by nature and wildlife, forests and lakes, jungles and oceans...
We all belive in Nynthias the female god of nature, the one that lets you be at peace with your soul when you are angry, the one that cheers you up when you are sad. She created all and can take it all away if she wishes so, but she belives that must never happen.
This Religion is the perfect religion for all Elves, Dwarfs and Nymphs. But all creatures are welcome, from Humans - Vampires, Orcs - Pixies!
Everyone can join, it is ... Fate.
 
๖ۣۜWait... The Dragon's insides remained Magma?
So crawling into a cave could be...

Hey guys, it was just a misunderstanding I suppose. People interpret things differently. I feel like this is turning into a flame war, I don't want that. patrickdxs hentem
 
I posted no such death threat. Learn what a joke is. Maybe you wouldn't always be giving out "offensive" ratings all the time if you had a sense of humor... Your constantly over reacting and abusing the rating system... Just stop now. Please.

Keep complaining, the rating system is nothing but invaluable numbers that show how popular your opinions are, I have poor rating because many people hate me, I can give you the offensive rating if I find your post offensive, and I did.

Also its "you're", not "your"

Perhaps if you presented yourself in a less accusatory and hostile manner, you wouldn't have so many poor ratings.
 
And back on topic we go!

Question time! I see no specific mention on the creation of other races besides Naga/Dakkar. Does this mean that in your religion they were the first officially sentient races to have existed in your timeline?

I hope yes! We will be...THE FIRST RACE!

This is secretive knowledge kept by Faolan Orn-Val De'Itos' library. However, since you actually stopped the flame war in this thread, along with MunMerti, I will make a special exception for you, the public, and The Shadow King considering he is Faolans RP brother.

Prepare for a complicated explanation:

When dragons fell, their scale and tissue would become stone. Erosion would cause for it to become sand on the ocean bottom. The bodies would be stacked up on-top of each corpse, causing small isles. However, all continents came to be when the insides of the Dragons would remain heated, and still set ablaze and caused small eruptions of magma to the surface and started shaping the continents. The Dragons had to lay eggs somewhere warm and safe, away from the Soon-To-Be-Void Legions. And commonly, it would be the near heated areas deep inside the caverns (Intestines of stone-a-fied dragons, near the lava.). Then, in order to fit through the caverns, the dragons started to devolve. Becoming smaller, and losing their appearance. Some remained in the caverns (Dakkar) others ventured above (Naga-Drakkar, from there they kept devolving as the demons granted them the ability of both red and black eyes, without the need of demonic possession)

As for the other races, such as the Maiar, Yanar, and Seraph, I am still writing some story for them. For example, the Seraph were created as guardians of The Light, but were driven by lust for power and created the prime conduit, leading to the void invasion.

Any more questions my people?

You have a point. I was hostile in my attempt to accuse Hentem of abusing the rating system. I will delete my posts, but I don't believe my accusations are entirely unfounded...
