## Religion and Culture

(understanding what the inhabitants of each island believe in and are like)

### **Kurina Island**

#### **Culture**

* Complicated. Monsters, dragons, and humans have their own culture, but the same religion.

#### **Religion**

* The religion that Kurina Island inhabitants practice is the 3 gods. They believe that at the beginning there was nothing; just emptiness, until in that emptiness the three gods came out and filled the emptiness with oceans, the sky, the Sun, stars, Earth, and much more. Later the gods changed their appearance and turned into the White fox, Black wolf, and Michael. The three gods were the ones that came first and the ones that created it all. **White Fox** is the master of all monsters and mother of magic and nature, **Black Wolf** is the father of all humans and the entity of time. **Michael** is the father to the third race known as the Dragons. All three gods are equal to each other.
* They believe in the balance between light and dark, chaos and order. As the gods created multiverses, they taught them that balance is needed so the prosperity of the world could grow, evolve, and learn.

#### Facts

#### **Religion**

##### **(**They have two religions about the beginning of the world)

1. They believe that first there was nothing, just nothing, until one day, inside the nothingness, something that was thought to be impossible emerged. It was a light that shone through all the darkness. When that happened, the Light took the form of a beautiful goddess with golden hair, stunning red eyes, and dressed in golden jewelry and white robes. The goddess looked at the nothing that surrounded her and decided to do something about it, so she created the Earth, the Sun, stars and planets, and People and Monsters. The Goddess was glad that she was not alone, but she still felt lonely, even though she had so many followers. So, she decided to go to Earth and she changed into her human form. She lived among the people. When she lived like this, she saw that the world, despite the life and hope that she gave them, was not enough; there was growing darkness in the shadows that corrupted her people. As a goddess, she did what she could to get rid of this darkness. The only thing she could do was advise the people while waiting for the world to free itself from the darkness. However, the dark energy split and crushed the world. The darkness attacked her and the goddess "died" (she disappeared so everyone thought she died) for 10 years. With her supposed death, the darkness grew stronger. The goddess, wounded, hid to heal herself, and then she met a young man. The man helped her heal and a special bond formed between them; eventually, the Goddess confessed her love to him and he was overjoyed with the news. Then they got married. During these 5 years with the man, the goddess gave birth to twins, but she could not live with them. The darkness still existed, so she left her beloved spouse with the children and set out to fight the darkness. The darkness was extremely powerful; it distorted people and monsters, creating chaos and destruction between them. The Goddess did her best to fight this darkness; she faced many battles against the darkness, and when the goddess finally ended it, she discovered that it sentenced death to her lover and her children. The goddess immediately went there and found them dead. Grief and despair filling her up, the Goddess decided to use her essence to save them and let her children live in a reincarnated state. However, her beloved husband could not share the same fate because of his opposition to his children who were half-gods; he was only a human. The goddess, even though she made her children come back one day, laments over her beloved, after some time when peace reigned again, the goddess found the children who were sent reincarnations and watches over them. Once, when her reincarnated children revealed the power of her eyes, the Goddess appeared to her children and confessed the truth to them. She offered them a place in her luminous kingdom; one of her children joined her and her other son left her for unknown reasons. Still today day he goes through reincarnation, her second son lives with her in her kingdom and they look at the world. As time passed, her son started to get bored; it made him tease the world. His mother did not tolerate it, but he did not listen to her and did what he wanted. His brother, who had survived two reincarnations, knew what was going on and challenged his brother to a duel. He shot the sky and the Earth. Who won the duel is unknown because they both died. The Goddess was very sad that her children had killed each other, so she decided that her kingdom would be only available to her. Overtime time, her children underwent another reincarnation, and at this point, each time the two brothers meet over different reincarnations, they fight each other to the death. So far, however, the duels always end in a draw.
2. **The second religion is less known but still considered:** Some of the people from Aru island believe that there was no goddess, but much older beings. They believe that when the time was young, the first creatures were born. They call them the Titans. They believe that Titans are the first ones that ever existed in our universe and are the ones that created all that exists. The Titans even created gods as the second creation, but the outcome of the birth of the gods was bloody. As the gods were made, they were overcome with pride and betrayed the Titans. This sparked the Great Holy War. The gods won the war and took over heaven and created the pantheon. From that day they were known as the 23 gods; the ones who created the humans. They believe that monsters are creatures that Titans made to kill their creation and that humans and monsters are destined to fight each other until one of the races dies off. The gods did their best and enslaved the monsters; they gave them minds and souls so there could be peace between the two races. The ones that believe in this religion sometimes go and kill monsters as a sacrifice for the 23 gods.
3. The people who believe in either one of these religions are known as "Children of the Light goddess" and or "Shadows." This religion comes from a far land behind T**he Ocean of Death**.

* Children of the Light Goddess:

1. Children of the Goddess had many reincarnations and names, and whenever they meet it ends up in a battle to the death. That has been going on for centuries. It is said that if one of them wins over the other, the darkness or light will show through the sky. If the light is the one who takes over, those who live on Aru Island will be restored and the island will no longer be a desert island; however, if the darkness is the one to protrude, there will be death and people will disperse. To make sure that the good son will win, a cult named **Knights of the Light** will find the good child and prepare him to kill his evil brother, but the same goes for his evil twin. A cult known as the **Shadows** is doing the same for the evil one (this cult was made by the evil twin during the brothers' last battle to boost his strength).
2. Currently, the reincarnation of the good brother's name is Temeus, also known as "Tiger Claw." The name of the evil twin is unknown since after the dark age he was never found.

### **Okami Island**

#### **Religion**

* In this religion, believers think that before creation there was darkness that consumed everything that it touched. This went on until one day, from the darkness, a powerful being came out. They call the being the **Moon Warrior** that rose from the shadows. The battle between the moon warrior and the darkness was long and destructive. However, on one fateful day, another deity was born; her name was **Alice**, a goddess. Alice helped the Moon Warrior defeat the darkness, and so after the darkness was defeated, the warrior and Alice fell in love with each other. And so they created the world as we know it. Later, they had a son named Yami and a daughter named Anko. Yami was a very serious guy and his sister wanted nothing more than to party. Monsters and humans gave the gods (Moon Warrior and Alice) joy and so they meet with the creatures and teach them about magic and how to use it. One day Yami and Anko had an argument that made them fight against each other; the fight caused the Earth to shake, but thankfully their parents stopped them before one of them got killed. After that, Yami and Anko never spoke to each other again. After many years, Anko found a gentle human that was very kind. Anko fell in love with him, she showed herself to him and had a nice talk. They talked for many days until she revealed her love to him; the human tells her that he loves her too, and so they got married and have a child. Their daughter's name was Maka. When Anko was enjoying her life with a new family, Yami was living in the mountains. He lived there alone for many years, but as time progressed, eventually a cute young female monster visited him in the mountains. At first, Yami didn't want to talk to her; but one day, he heard a scream. He left to see what happened and saw that the female monster who visited him was attacked by some human bandit. Yami intervened and saved her. On that day, Yami finally starts to talk to her, and so they start spending more time with each other until they fall in love and finally get married. They had twin children and created a temple for their family to live in.
