Eian Aionita

Eian Aionita (In-A-on-ita) is a polytheistic faith with two main groups of gods that are in a constant battle for the protection of all living things vs direct control. The first sources of this faith can be found in the book, A Captain's Journey, which is currently still being written.

Creation Myth
The beginning starts with the first light that is laid on this world. The first being to breathe its first breath. The gods opened their eyes and saw the world beneath them. They watched the communities beneath them form communities and prosper with festivals, games, trade, and many others. Most of the gods enjoyed the activities and loved watching the beings interact with one another, except one god. Hachun wanted to see more, he wanted to see blood and backstabbing. He proposed to the other gods that they use beings in their bidding and make them fight one another. As he proposed this, he used his powers to bring chaos to one of these beings and it started to fight another until the being strangled the other to the death. Most of the gods were appalled by this, and others cheered. A rip was torn in the unity, and the gods argued and began to fight. Two sides have been formed, one that wants to protect the beings below, and the other wanting to use them as little playthings. Time and time again, the fighting slips out into our world and spreads war, disunity, greed, and dishonesty, splitting our world more and more. We, the Aiontions, need to support unity and offer food, supplies, valuables, and everything to give the gods energy to continue this fight. Our support should also help bring other gods out of the darkness and help bring unity or spread disunity and violence to our world.

Beliefs and Practices
Other personal rites can include the lighting of pumpkins and lanterns to talk and reach out to the gods. To get guidance and help from the gods so that the Aiontions can continue to provide support in the eternal war.

An Aiontion's true goal is to provide their most valuable connections to the gods as the stronger the connection, or the more valuable an item is, the more energy that can be given to the gods.

It is believed on the death of an Aiontion, they have the choice to be reincarnated, to continue the support of the gods, or to join the eternal war and help out in the fighting. It is also believed that energy is found in all living and non-living things.

Being Deceitful and Dishonest is despiteful in the Eian Aionita faith. Punishment will be given for Aiontions who use these for their benefit.
