Holy Light

The Holy Light is a divine being made up of the purest condensation of light. It has incredible powers of healing, possesses limitless knowledge about past and present, and is capable of creating life in sterile worlds such as Ilistrus. It is believed that the Holy Light can transcend dimensions and travel to other planes of existence, and it is unknown if there are any more beings of its kind. The Holy Light is worshipped primarily by the Order of the Lightsworn, but it is notable that other faiths on Ilistrus describe phenomena similar if not exactly the same to many events directly connected to the Holy Light.

### Origins:

The Holy Light is a primordial entity that was created at the end of the War of the Ancients, when the Infinites Ren and Tyrus sacrificed themselves to stop the blood-crazed Eternal known as Innia. The Holy Light is suspected to reside in a domain known as Cataega, a land brimming with holy magic where storms of holy power crackle across the skies. The Holy Light is a cosmic being, able to travel between worlds foreign to mortal inhabitants of Ilistrus. The Holy Light was first observed by a mortal of Ilistrus origin when Hauser Albrecht was saved by the divine entity after being ambushed during a military campaign. After he was rescued, he shared his experience with the citizens of his nation, and the Order of the Lightsworn was born. Since then, it has been primarily the Consulate of Seligard that has propagated the religion across Ilistrus. During his experience with the Holy Light, Hauser was given revelations of Ilistrus' origins, and he learned that the Holy Light found the barren planet while traversing the cosmos, and used its power to cast away the darkness residing there and created life.

### Abilities:

The Holy Light's power is rarely seen in its purest form and is often separated into three aspects, each of which represents a certain portion of its will. The three aspects are known as Qin'dor, Yinir, and Vali, ordered from greatest to least in terms of presence on Ilistrus. Qin'dor is seen as the Sun and represents the benign portion of the Holy Light's will, Yinir is seen as the presence of the Sun and Moon in the sky at the same time, and represents the justice-driven portion, and Vali is seen as the Moon and represents the bellicose nature of the Light; the desire of the Light to punish those who embrace evil. The Holy Light can utilize its power in many different ways. It can destroy pathogens and reverse curses by disintegrating them with its divine radiance, and on top of this, it can mend the most severe of wounds by transmitting energy to the body and giving it the resources needed to heal, even if the body would not normally be able to do so. The Holy Light may also grant its strength to its followers by way of ritual, imparting upon them a variety of beneficial effects. Since the Holy Light may be an interdimensional being, it is believed that it has access to knowledge of the future on top of its complete knowledge of all past events. Some of the most devout followers of the Holy Light have received visions of future events, such as turning points in wars or the creation of a new invention not set to take place for some weeks or months.
