Bambism

Origins and Introduction
The religion of Bambism finds its origins long ago in the Realm of the gods. Yet it followed into Abexilas. The Bambists believe in the purification of Abexilas and the purge of sinners. Bambists believe in the 'greater world', a massive realm that is home to the divine gods, one of whom is Lomos, the god of Bamboo.
The gods known as "The Elders" are the strongest gods, leaders of tribes and rule over the realms and have the strongest powers. The Pantheon is the elements and spirits of the realms, and the tertiary gods are the offsprings of both the elders and the pantheon.

The Great War of the Gods
There was once nothing. Then a breeze came forming the Pantheon Gods who saw that nothing could never be enough. The Gods who cannot be explained or comprehended by a mere human mind. First among these gods was Qyna, whom created the Earth. Aquariel created the Water. Tassyn created the land, then she created the plants, animals, and all whom inhabited the land. Lagi created the sky to protect all that they made. For eons the four gods lived in peace and harmony. But a dark day befell them. 
As darkness grew within Aquariel God of Water. He sought to destroy everything good they had made and to turn it to his will. He saw that the other gods were not creating anything he deemed right. Aquariel betrayed and murdered Tassyn. the gentlest of gods. For when Tassyn God of Nature fell, great change had befallen the land. Things had ceased to grow, disasters such as floods, droughts, and tsunamis destroyed all that was good. Qyna and Lagi acted upon this. 
A great battle occurred. Gods with such power would never be seen again. Aquariel whom was ravaged with evil and desire threw all he possessed at his opponents. Oyna and Lagi answered every shot, the death of their beloved Tassyn forevermore on their minds. After one eon of fighting, Aquariel grew tired, his guard let down and Oyna delivered the defeating blow. Before Aquariel could be banished to the edges of space and time he poured his life force into his new creations. His creations would one day awake and continue his work. With that he was defeated.
Ayna and Lagi, knowing they did not hold the strength to fix and continue dominion upon this world, used the last of their strength to create Lomos God of Bamboo. Vayuk King of Kings, Cytara Godess of Time, Amos God of Wisdom, Ynja Goddess of Peace, and Estus Goddess of Magic. After the deities took their first look and first breath. Avna and Lagi saw that what they had made was good and they passed on never to be seen again. The Greatest of the elders were Lomos and Estus. Guided by the wisdom of Amos. The world was remade. 
The Realm of the Gods stood ever bright and happy. New life were abundance. The race of men was formed. They forever served the gods. They built kingdoms, cities and civilizations. The cities and towns were ripe with culture and prosperity, with the interactions with the gods the race of men were favoured by the gods, as they were never perfect. Such tiny lifeforms whom aged and withered away. Yet they accomplished many things and always sought to improve themselves. Such lives were fascinating to Lomos and he swore to protect them for as best he could. Lomos took form of a man, perfect in everyway. He erected the Great Stalk of Topethra. It reached high into the heavens and its roots wrapped around the realm. This great stalk of Bamboo would sustain life and be the foundation for all that was good.
The prosperity and harmony could not last. Aquariel's creation had awoken. Ivaris God of Chaos and Imdite God of War saw the Race of Men and Gods to be pathetic. They lusted for power through war and chaos. They started by instilling chaos and war amongst the kingdoms of men. Many Kings became corrupted by power, envy, and greed. Thus formed the Nine Fallen Kingdoms servants of Chaos and war. They reigned terror and chaos within the land. 
Vayuk king of kings led an army of the free kingdoms of men against these foes. A great battle ensued, claiming many lives. Ivaris spreaded chaos among the ranks of men. Yet many still stood firm under the leadership of Vayuk. Vayuk engaged Imdite in battle. The two gods fought to the fullest of their powers, bringing down mountains in their path. But Vayuk was defeated by Imdite's Fellblade. With the death of Vayuk the battle was lost. 
Ivaris then set fire to the great bamboo stalk that once stood as tall as the heavens, but now was completely burned and it was like it was never there. This sent shockwaves around the Greater World, and the chaos ensued for thousands of years. Lomos and the rest of the elders led the armies of men and gods against the evil foes. The war would continue to last for thousands of years, the world became unrecognizable. A ghost of what it once was. Most of life torn away. The kingdoms of men in shambles. 
The elders could not defeat these foes. Yet hope prevailed when Ynja fell in love with Imdite. She bore a child, and Imdite ceased his war and fled deep into the Land of the Gods, there they raised Myumjr God of Anarchy, Mischief, and Humour. Ivaris was left weakened without the support of Imidite. The gods saw this weakness and exploited it. Lomos and Ivaris fought a great battle. A battle that held so must destruction it completly changed the shape of the world. Ivaris held his Bedlam Blade, the powerful weapon that he used to reign chaos all over the land. He landed a critical hit against Lomos. Lomos laid unmoving, yet he was not yet ready to be taken into the grasps of death. 
He arose, standing tall and mighty. The fight continued, but the clouds grew ominous as a great power was approaching. Estus descended upon Ivaris, The combined strength of Lomos, and Estus was to much for Ivaris to bear. Estus cast a powerful spell trapping Ivaris in the depths of the underworld for eternity. Estus is often called to do immense tasks, and such is known to fall into a century-long sleep after these tasks.. Lomos and Cytara banished the nine fallen kingdoms into the underworld. With that the war was won. Vayuk's spirit lived on and morphed into Fadeon, God of Death. His job was to guide the fallen and lost from the war into the afterlife. 
Lomos and the remaining gods gathered to observe the destruction. Amos advised to rebuild it from scratch for the destruction was to terrible for life to continue. The three gods Lomos, Amos, and Cytara created the Greater world. Home of the gods. The surviving men of the realm were lifted up and placed in the Greator world. They became immortal and wise, Celestial Tenants of the gods. 
Another world was formed, no longer shall the race of men and gods live side by side. Abexilas, a land for all the race of men to inhabit. A place of which the great kingdoms, civilizations, and nations shall flourish. Amos knowing how destructive a war of the gods can be, decreed that the gods shall never interfere to the same extent in the affairs of man ever again. 
Abexilas lay open and free for the kingdoms of men, they shall forever seek guidance and fortune from the gods. But never physical intervention. Yet peace and harmony can never be. The race of men will forever have infighting and war for Imidite still lives and his affects holds many places in the minds of men.
