Lunarian Triune

= The Lunarian Triune = The Lunarian Triune is a faith that hails from the ancient Qwe'tsn Empire. Reborn again by the Heralds of the Moon, this religion has begun again in it's ancestral homeland deep within the heartland of Valore.

"“In their mortal peril, they turned to us for succor; yet they had forsaken us and so too shall their prayers be cast to the wind.”""“Down upon the verdant lands the people cling to their false idols. Long they have forgotten us; yet we remain.”""—The Forgotten Gods of Qwe’tsn"The people of Qwe’tsn’s faith waned. They forsook their gods and fell for their coruscating illusions of promise. As the people turned to their false gods the gods of the old lands remained, awaiting their inevitable return. These three Triune Gods are spirits of the Moon. It is through their magnanimous might in which they guide the mortal races to achieve their highest potential.

As the ages passed by; the peoples faith waned, and so too did the gods revoke their protection over their imperial domain. Over a thousand years ago the gods watched the mortals writhe upon the lands destroying all they had built. Their divine guidance ceased to aid the people of Eldham and so too did their prayers go unanswered.

The ancient scrolls of Xa'kes foretold the coming of the endless night and the return of the forgotten gods. In their discordant cry, the mortals pleaded for the return of the sun, thankless and ungrateful for the moon and it’s guiding light. Through mortal folly the sun may one day be rekindled, however, so too shall the forgotten gods of Qwe’tsn answer the cries of the faithful. For time immemorial the Gods have remained watching the world from afar, but the coming of ages are upon us. The Lunarian Triune has returned to guide the world once more.
