Sept of the First Virtue

The Sept of the First Virtue is a small religion, dualistic religion in Eastern Rathnir, focusing on exploring the cyclical nature of the world, especially the unending tide of life and death. The Sept is known by many other names (such as the Church of the Nameless God and Children Beneath the Shadow of the Moon), but officially brands itself as the Sept of the First Virtue.

Origins and History
The Sept of the First Virtue has been around perhaps since life first began at the beginning of creation, when the Second Circle was born from the fracturing of the Spheres.

Long before Rathnir, even Jagdas, the religion existed, though unknown to many. It slumbered like a great beast, waiting to awaken and enact the will of the Gods.

Most of the Sept went extinct long before the creation of the current world, with nearly all sites and information lost to time, with the exception of the corpse city of Cimeterium, though most, if not all of the people that remained there also lost the knowledge of the old times.

While Cimeterium continued to grow under the guidance of the Undead King, the religious beliefs of the Sept were lost, with many of its people turning to other religions, such as Lux or the Blue Phoenix. This time is considered the "Great Emptiness", as though Cimeterium and its people (who would later come to be known as Osseus) flourished, culture and knowledge was almost entirely lost to the world.

For many years, this continued until the Kartek Diarchy fractured,
