==Can You Tell Me More on Those We Worship?== Who do you wish to know? ===Vogestes, the Red King, and Yargan?=== [[File:Black_Mountain_of_Pelanda.png|600px|thumb|right|The Black Mountain, Throne of GanEstoro, Temple of Vogestes]] One of the secrets we know in Spol is that these three are all one man. Vogestes stayed apart from the tribe, and in doing so realized that death exists. He taught us how to to make and sustain the world by making sacrifices. Just as Idomon is the Prophet of Idovanus the Creator, Vogestes is the the Agent of GanEstoros. Later, Vogestes became the Red King in Naveria. He was a good ruler, a loving husband to Naveria, and tragically, he was also her father. He proved his nobility by accepting his fate when Natha sacrificed him. In doing so, he ensured his land would be renewed as he had been. ===Gerra?=== [[File:Gerra.png|300px|thumb|right|Ancient Mural of Gerra at Dezarpovo, Restored by Lunars]] Gerra is the black moon, and she is known as Sorrow, for she understood better than most how suffering and injustice work in the world. She constantly spoke truth, which made her unpopular. She sacrificed herself to create hope in darkness. ===Turos and GanEstoro?=== Turos is the God of Power, and we know him as GanEstoro, Turos of Gan, the God who Gives and Takes. His Kingship is based on might, relationships, and choice. We worship him at the Black Mountain Throne, and he makes his proclamations through the cracks in the caves. Responsible only to himself, we offer him tribute so that he may aid us when we need it. His capriciousness is dangerous, but it also has created the world we know and it was he who stole the secrets of iron from the Mostali. Eventually, his actions brought him into conflict with Idovanus and the Law. After a great struggle, GanEstoro admitted the Law must exist to allow the world to exist, and Idovanus admitted the Law has limits to allow the world to exist. ===YarGan?=== YarGan was a powerful worshipper of GanEstoro who ruled a realm far to the West. The Blue People aided his travel to Wendaria, and his father gave him a spear made by the Bluesmiths of the Brass Mountains. Under his rule, he promoted the ways of proper sacrifice like Vogestes, and his rule used the Logicians and their sorcery to create stability beneath a broken sky. He created the first city in Wendaria. He was eventually overthrown by the warlord Daxdarius, and the Angry Bull Bisos. He was too powerful to truly defeat, however, and he took another name to become the God of Plenty and Victory. ===Derdromus?=== Derdromus is the Final Winner, the once and future king of the Underworld. Turos invaded the underworld to find a wife, and while there he also took the underworld and all its treasures. Derdromus thus became the Monster Man, wandering the surface and causing strife as he seeks what he lost. Derdromus is a terrifying force that must be appeased. Upon his throne, he is divine right, for good and for ill. ===Azerlo?=== Azerlo is the wife of Derdromus, she is compassion, for good and for ill. Supposedly, others call her Xiola Umbar, but that is not the name she told us. Derdromus and she are estranged since she was tricked into helping Turos. ===Natha?=== Natha is the Balancer, the daughter and synthesis of the Oath Avengers Nansha and Naquasha. She brings low those who have become great by ignoring obligations to the Old Gods, and enforces the rights of the ones who made the world. The Lunars believe they follow Natha. We will see. ===Idovanus?=== Idovanus is the god of order. He wants everything to be clean and organized, which is sometimes good and sometimes not. He eventually came to blows against GanEstoro, whose sacrifices and survival were not clean and tidy. Their fight, and truce afterwards, defines our world. Unfortunately, Carmanos and his followers both exalt and misunderstand, thinking he is a perfect deity. This has caused misery. ===Gartemirus?=== Gartemirus was a good and wise ruler, but he believed he could create a society free of suffering or sacrifice. Natha constantly pointed out the error of this. After a millennium of trying to perfect society, he gave up, and his kingdom promptly collapsed.
