Main: Kaliteth

Within the world of Edæroth, there are several religions which are practiced by the people.

The Divines

The oldest known religion of humanity, the Faith of the Five or the Five Divines, was nearly lost during the era of the Ödika Empire when Ödithrax commanded that the people only worship him, as the only true god of humanity. Despite the threat of inquisitions and execution for heresy, faith in the "old gods" was kept by a few devote followers who practiced in secrecy. Also, among the lowest castes, there remained a folklore of the Five Divines passed by oral tradition from generation to generation. Following the Fall of the Empire and the death of a god, many of the people were suddenly left without a religion. In this void, those devote followers of the Divine Five who kept the faith were now freed to bring the faith of the "old gods" to the people. Currently, Faith of the Five is the dominate religion of Kaliteth and promoted by all but a couple of the Lord Overseers. The priests\priestesses of this religion are held in high regard by most in Kaliteth. The primary precepts of the religion is worship of the Divine Five, the gods claimed to be the creators and guardians of humanity.
