Soteriology

The world nestled in the roots of the primordial tree can be said to have a thousand tales to its origin. From the buds which climb its trunk sprouts flowers, as our cherished creation is always changing, for even the trees tended over generations must be wet with the occasional letting of blood.  With spirits, sustaining from the flow of life which anchor their bodies, animated by speculation. Why were we born in this world and why does it permeate with evil? Is the nature of our creation selfishness? Or are these traits corrupted aspects of ourselves?

With the many stories of creation taken into account, the differing narratives of truths converge to a single observation.

A description of the course of our lives.
Of the abyss separating the world from nothing.

Without a foothold on this continent where the Pantheon has been dominant for many years, the destruction of Martyr's Vigil and the persecution of the followers of Mydaea burgeoned forth the ancient faith of Avalon in the southern reaches of Meranthe to fill the void left by the sufferings of the people.

Kraus has not made an appearance since incarnating in legendary times, though this is disputed by some. This silence is welcomed by the non-magi and those weary of the squabbles of the primordials, whilst theologians and academics are pleased to learn of a completed method of theurgy outside of the impulsive Ten. Peasants are not picky about the aid of the faith's traveling healers. There are myriad depictions of the Creator among the faithful spanning appearance and culture, but pair of wings is always visible.

It might have little sway in the realm of Delphina but it is not yet banned in any country.

- The faith is unique as followers preach a way out of reincarnation to the nirvana of Avalon where pain and war do not exist, instead of the offerings of power given by the more-present primordials. Unlike its past incarnations, no single race is said to be favored.
- A strong moralizing feature remains. But the hundreds of different commentaries of the faith and its texts have not decided which morality that is.
- The conflicts and thanatophobia of the immortals are dubbed as vanity. But the primordials are not evil by nature, thought of as just incredibly powerful magi.
- Followers of the faith can learn and utilize a magic typically described in normal parlance as holy magic. Its zenith, White Magic, can even restore a lost life.
