Way of the Lumin

Summary:
 Way of the Lumin  is an ancient religion in the Land of Eldham that centers around the philosophy of Divine Harmony. It centers on a life force, known as the Luminescence, that flows through and is apart of everything. Once thought to be lost to ages, The Way of the Lumin made its resurgence with the founding of the Citidel of Lumines at Lumineria by the one called Tre Buras.

Early History:
Long before the ancient days of Eldham, the Lumines called out to a group of Warrior-Priests were seeking the path to Divine Harmony. This is when they felt the Lumines reach out to them and calling them. These would become the First of the Lumin or The Remembered. Some feared that following the call would lead to destruction, while others believed the Lumines’ call would lead to Divine Harmony, and this is what lead The Great Expulsion. During The Great Expulsion, many of The Remembered were nearly wiped out with only a handful of the Templars remaining.

Over time the few became one, and the one continued to pass on the knowledge he knew to another. Over time, the knowledge became something that was merely known and not practiced. This line of scholars became known as the Keepers of the Lumin, they did not practice the knowledge, merely kept it, many fearing it would lead to another Great Expulsion, far deadlier than the first. Centuries would by before a Keeper by the name of Tre Buras began to put into practice the knowledge of the Lumin.

Modern Day:
While meditating on the Sacrosanct Texts in the now abandoned town of Dasana, Tre Buras felt the Lumines call out. This call could not be ignored, and so he fallowed it. His calling took him to an Island off the coast of what would come to be known as the Ashtrokan-Wandenreich Empire. It would be here were an enlightened Tre Buras would dawn the mantle of Grand-Templar and reestablish the long-forgotten Templars of Lumin. Now, in the city of Lumineria, the Templar of Lumin are rising from the ashes of obscurity.

Summary:
