Morukism

Morukism ''„The time of Moruk will come. We follow Ulnuk’s way.”''

Chapter 1

Creation and future

In the beginning there was nothing for eternities, than from nothing a turquoise colored light started to shine in the dark void. From that light later born Moruk the almighty one god. Moruk was desiring offsprings who would create all heaven and nether and everything in between. Moruk than meditated for a thousand years. Towards the end of this period, the turquoise light being began to doubt the efficacy of meditation and in the moment of this doubt Ulnuk and Keten were conceived: Ulnuk for the meditation and Keten for the doubt. They formed an turquoise egg with black dots together from Moruk’s energy. Upon realizing that twins were to be hatching, Moruk resolved to grant the first-born sovereignty over creation. Ulnuk perceived Moruk's decision, which he then communicated to his brother. Keten then preempted Ulnuk by ripping open their egg to emerge first. Reminded of the resolution to grant Keten sovereignty, Moruk conceded, but limited kingship to a period of nine world ages, after which Ulnuk would rule for a three world ages. One for clearing the darkness of Keten’s world, one for building his own and one final one to prepare for the arrival of Moruk who will merge heaven with earth, and banish Keten to the nether forever. Until that Moruk is ruling heaven and listening to the prayers of all souls, who are his pure creations. Keten is carving and creating the material world, with all it’s suffering. Ulnuk is preparing the souls for the end of Keten’s age while teaching them good will and kindness.

Chapter 3

Present

During our times Keten’s corruption is ruling with small but strong turquoise lights of Ulnuk and his parent the almighty Moruk. From time to time Ulnuk chooses champions of faith who are showing example to other souls by virtues. Most of the time these champions are from the monastic order of Morukism called Turquoise Templars Monastic Order. Their symbol is a turquoise X on a white banner, which symbolises the light of Moruk and purity. Although it is not mandatory, most of the follower join the Templars during his lifetime. Some for longer, some for shorter times. The duty of the the Templars is to spread the faith of Moruk, to bring closer the time of Ulnuk and to fight against Keten. The fight is not necessary means war. Most often it means charity and kindness. Going to war in the name of Ulnuk or Moruk is only allowed when the grand master of the Templars proclaim holy war, and it is only in case of last resort. Monasteries have to contain an open hall of faith for everybody, with the Book of Moruk and with free food for the poor.

Stories of champions

Champion Bridlion

The magical champion who was a captain of a ship which brought the first wave of Turquoise Templars to Rathnir. During the journey  the ship entered a huge thunderstorm. She prayed to Ulnuk who gave her and her crew wings to fly from the storm. When they landed the wings disappeared. After that Champion Bridlion built the first monastery of Morukism in Rathnir.

Champion Reterion

One day while the monks were busy meditating, the fires, which were left in charge of Reterion, all went out. He, wishing no one to incur the blame of the champion, offered up prayer, whereupon fire sparkled from his finger-tips like flashes from a flint when it is struck.

Champion Lilewen

The legends more often identifies Lilewen as a dog rather than a human. Champion Lilewen was a man whose human identity has been overshadowed by hucksterism about a mythical martyred dog. According to folklore promoted by the Templars in Burnurville, Lilewen the dog was a wolfhound unjustly killed by his owner, Prince Admust the Great, when found with bloody maws near the empty cradle of Admust's son. When the scene was investigated, the body of a wolf was found, which the dog Lilewen had killed to save the baby's life.

Champion Erpi

A martyr champion of the city of Guvnara. When the city was attacked by the neigboring kingdom Erpi held the city without supplies for a month and led the weakened soldiers of her on a grand final assault where she lost her life, but Ulnuk decided because of her bravery he will revive her a week later. After that Erpi return to the living and led the army to victory. After the end of the war she laid down, said goodbye and died peacefully.
