Krenistos

Krenistos
Krenistós was the legendary and deified founder of the state of Pavnosia.
Background
Born somewhere near the modern state of Almyr, Krenistós had a troubled childhood as he was thrown in the forest by his native tribe due to the words of a village oracle deming him a threat to the tribe's existence. It was around this time where he befriended an owl which he namned Pavnosos which became his only friend. One day while out hunting, Krenistos saw the face of a god who told him "to found a state where his owl sees". Many schoolars and theologians still debate about which possible god this could be as it is very ambiguous which god it was in the story. Eventually after months of travelling, his owl, Pavnosos landed in a field and that was the spot were the state of Pavnosia was founded. Krenistós decided to name this new land after his owl, Pavnosos. Krenistós decided to go on a several year long journey in which he convinced several tribes to join him in his settlement of these new lands. The area in which Pavnosos landed was the eventual site for the sanctuary of Pavnosos, which is believed to be the oldest settlement in all of Pavnosia. 
Later life and death
Little is told about his final years but what is commonly accepted is that he ruled Pavnosia as a fair king until his death. His death is believed to be because of natural causes.
Works
Krenistós is believed to be the head builder of the Minor temple of Pavnosos which is still standing to this day.
