Mount Kojin

The most holy site within the Kojin faith, Mount Kojin is an active shield volcano standing at over 8,000 ft tall, the largest volcano of its kind on Al'ard. Sitting just outside the Oreian capital of Molucca, the volcano has been the most famous symbol of Kojin religious faith and Oreian culture. Having been active for hundreds of thousands of years, it is believed to have served as the inspiration for the founding of the Kojin faith, and is seen as a physical manifestation of their god to many believers. Faithful Kojins are expected to attempt to summit the volcano at least once in their life to sacrifice a prized possession into the crater, or failing that, one of the many magma flows that often stream from the summit. Historically, Kojin adherents would perform willing human sacrifice, especially of the ill and dying, however this has since been banned, though many still choose to throw themselves into the volcano to end their lives and honour their god. The government has placed health loosely enforced requirements on those attempting to summit the mountain in order the curb the rate of suicide. Having one's body cast into the lava after death is allowed, and considered an especially honourable form of burial, though direct family members must carry the body to the summit.
