## Mythology

### Central Figures

The central figures of the religion are the twin deities, Father Egg and Mother Egg. Father Egg holds dominion over the sky and over milliitary prowess and Mother Egg holds dominion over the earth and mining. The seas are an untamed place inhabited by pirates, thieves and like scum.

Father Egg is represented by a sword and Mother Egg is represented by the pickaxe.

Many years ago, Father Egg or the Sky Father fought a war with Carvay long ago but was struck down by sea dwelling devils and barbarian hordes that came by sea, pelted by arrows enough to blot out the sun, cast headlong from above the clouds to a bare snow covered land. As Father Egg's nearly dead body impacted the ground, mere hair's length from meeting hard rock at full speed, Mother Egg bent the rock and permafrost to create a cave with a bed of nettles and thorn berries to catch Father Egg in his fall. The Sky Father's injuries were far too great to walk or fly for millenia. This event came to be called The Skyfall.

Mother egg or The Earth Mother sits by Father Egg's side, leaving only to get food or water for Father Egg. This deterioration of the grieving and shell shocked Mother Egg by her sedentary state is what is called Enmis Manos and it symbolizes the detrioration of the nomadic traditions in the homeland.

The earthen hole and resting place made by Mother Egg to house the injured Father Egg is what is called the Cave of Egg. This place is located in the spirit realm and not the tangible world of mortals. However, the one place where its celestial aura can be felt distinctly is the Cave of Egg which was made the Headquarters of this religion.

### Dragons

Dragons are mythological creatures part of ancient Altequentian religion that are representatives of the wind and the directions. The dragons rule the vast skies and are great beasts made of flaming white fire. They are seen as stars by mortals. Dragons constantly fight over the control of a specific direction and power of the greatest wind. Dragon carcasses are seen covering many battlefields where these cosmic battles occur. Dragonic weapons and sometimes dragons themselves fall from the skies sometimes as part of these collosal battles. The most powerful of the Dragons rule the cardinal directions. As time changes, dragons of a certain direction gain more power than others by conquest and battle.

Dragons often descend to the mortal realm, more often as corpses but sometimes dragons or Pequenos descend to the mortal realm and take mortal form. They often make children with mortals as part of their attempts at gaining tribute. from mortals.

Dragons take prominent position in the Spirit Realm too. Dragons become equal to mortal souls in the Spirit Realm but maintain their skills and authority from when they were alive. Dragons cannot reincarnate into the mortal world normally but Dragons often degrade their spirit to make themselves into lesser spirits called "Pequenos" ordered based on their power in their lives. The highest heirarchy among Pequenos is that of Archopequer, below which is Pequer and finally Sacerdon(or Sakerdon). The priests of the church can attain a role of Sacerdon by making a pilgrimage to the Homeward Path, a long journey across North Altquentia following the ancient nomad's path to assimilation under the farming kingdoms there. The path stretches from the North East coast of Altequentia by the Northern desert, follows up to the river draining at the Northeast Coast, through the Northern savannah plains and into the land bridge to Vastallos. This journey itself is called Saceradonia resembles the initiation traditions of warrior peoples of the homeland.

The major dragons are Lunarin, Dragon of the West or the Corpse Moon, Solarin, Dragon of the East and protector over Rathnir, Stellarin, Lord of the North and The Southern Coalition's Chief, Foatlatl.

In the past, son of the previous dragon who ruled the East, Rexinar named Rexinar "The Red" made a plan to kill Lunarin. He used magic to talk with dead spirit dragons and with their guidance was able to locate an ancient unspent dragonic weapon after embarking on herculean labours. This weapon was used to kill Lunarin. His blood rained down on Rathnir for many months. His corpse now still stays in the sky, earning it thenickname of the Corpse moon. Ancient peoples from Rathnir who were the most loyal worshippers of Lunarin were taken to live on the surface of the Moon itself, which itself was the body of Lunarin. They followed their ancient nomadic ways on the Moon and had great cities between vast nomadic pastures. These ancient peoples desperately evacuated their nomadic pastures to the colonized world of Rathnir to live in shame as slaves in all but name and unable to practise their ancient ways in peace.
