Haiao

Haiao traditionally referred to the sun god in ancient Faronun culture -- a benevolent god of pure goodness, who smiled upon the earth and allowed things to grow and people to survive. With the intrusion of foreign religions into Helsia and the conversion of large parts of the population to Aitahism and Iralliam, Haiao came to mean something more akin to the universe, or the mystical perfection of that universe -- though of course it also still refers to the sun. Given the Faronun belief that Haiao was an all-loving god, a common epithet for the hated Satar became Dahaiaou -- meaning "those who Haiao refuses to shine on," a blasphemous and altogether astonishing concept.
