Yazig Faith

The Yazig Faith an ancient religion that revolves around the veneration of sacred fire, nature spirits, and a deep connection to their ancestors. This religion, while distinct from the Orthodox Mormonism of the Satemid Empire, is tolerated due to its ancient origins and the Yazigs' fierce loyalty as warriors. 
=== Core Beliefs ===
The Yazigs revere the Atash, or Sacred Fire, as the embodiment of purity and divine energy. Every household maintains a hearth, known as an atashbar, where its sacred flame is carefully tended. This fire is not only a source of warmth and light but also a symbol of life and the spiritual connection between the Yazigs and the divine. The Atash is central to many of their rituals and daily practices, and the Yazig ethnopolis of Yagshe-Moshe features its own atashbar known as the Yazbarak.
The Yazigs also believe in a pantheon of nature spirits called Yashki who inhabit the natural world. These spirits are integral to their mythology and daily life. Some Yashki, such as the Sonichu Spirit, feature prominently in their legends and are considered powerful beings that must be respected and appeased. The Yazigs believe that the Yashki influence all aspects of life, from the fertility of the land, to the outcome of battles. 
=== Rituals and Practices ===
The Fire Festival is a major Yazig event held in the spring. During this festival, young men prove their worthiness to marry by jumping over a large pit of fire. This dangerous rite of passage is seen as a test of bravery and strength. Only those who successfully leap over the flames earn the right to marry a woman for the coming year. Marriages among the Yazigs are temporary, lasting only one year, during which the goal is to conceive a child who will be born in the following spring. Many men perish in the flames, but those who survive are celebrated as strong and worthy.
In place of traditional purification rites, the Yazigs practice Purification by fire, using fire as a means of spiritual cleansing and empowerment. Before battles or important events, Yazig warriors pass their weapons and armor through sacred flames to purify them and imbue them with the strength of the Atash. Some warriors even undergo brief but intense exposure to the fire, believing it will burn away fear and weakness, leaving only the purest form of themselves. Fanatics will light themselves on fire before charging into battle in an effort to unsettle the enemy, taking as many out as they can before they burn to death.
The spiritual heart of the Yazig Faith is the Great Fire Temple located in Yagshe-Mosh, their capital. This temple is called the Yazbarak, and it is here that the largest and most sacred atashbar is kept burning. The temple is tended by a small, elite order of priests known as the Yashvandars. These priests are highly respected within Yazig society for their ability to interpret the will of the flames and commune with the Yashki. They are sought after for their wisdom and spiritual guidance, particularly in times of crisis.
