Orueh Pantheon

Orueh Pantheon
The Orueh people, from ancient times, have firmly believed in the existence of Kai (Divine Spirits) while rejecting monothestic beliefs. After the unification of the Orueh kingdoms by Sotren the Uniter the Sotreneu Pantheon was established with only the worship of certain Karakai (Kings of Spirits) being allowed, those being Mahran, Inaki, Kervek, Isharimal and Taru. Even after the establishment of the Sotreneu Pantheon the northern provinces would continue to worship many more Kai deeming Sotren a misled person yet a charismatic ruler.

Creation
Written sources divide the creation into 2 parts, the first being hard to explain without studying the original source. Firstly a force known as Narh "decided to exist" and create out of chance since not doing so to him would be the same.

After that, Narh created a robe notably out of love for his creation instead of chance and decided to not exist. In the second part of creation, theKai would go on to form their own beings and shape the lands to make them habitable for the beings they created, trying to copy what Narh did, not knowing it was chance that was the guiding force behind his actions.

Understanding of the Kai
The Kai, according to Orueh beliefs, are beings far superior to man, yet flawed. They are seen as imperfect yet far closer to perfection than humans. Thus they are worshipped and celebrated across the lands of the Orueh. The Kai are also bound to their people, thus the gods of the Orueh follow them around wherever they might migrate or what lands they conquer and so do the gods of other nations with them. When a nation accepts the Kai of the Orueh as their own it is a great celebration as it seen as the gods themselves forging an alliance. Notably the number of Kai in creation is far greater than the number of humans, yet many of them choose to remain uknown.

Kai Titles
Each Kai is given cetrain titles which hint towards some of their attributes. Invoking the name of a Kai along with its title is the easiest way to get their attention since the Kai dont understand human language but emotions and meanings. Thus invoking Isharimal the All-Seeing in your prayers would be the best way to get her attention and help if someone had done something in your land plot and the only witness was the shrine of Isharimal.
