His nation was recently in a civil war which was costly and had drained all the money he had saved up in the nations bank. Although he made some of the money back through taxing the people, he did not have enough to pay the builders he had hired to rebuild or the mercenary's who helped win the battle. When he notified the mercenary's of his financial situation they threatened to come back and burn down his nation. but in his lowest moment The Goddess of Wealth appeared to him in a dream. She offered him Success, fame and most important to Theus at the time, fortune. fortuna would grant him all that in return for his worship and for him to build a church in his capital.. He of course took up Poderism and he saw his life change almost immediately. A few days after he started worshiping fortuna he struck it rich in mining and found gold vein after gold vein making almost 300k in a single trip. He found that he was becoming very lucky with fishing and pulled enchanted book after enchanted book. Before he knew it he had enough money to pay back everything he owed and a fortune to keep for himself. Once Theus had regained his wealth fortuna appeared to him once more and told him to spread Poderism through party's and fun activities. She said this would convey what a fun and joyous life a person could have if they worshiped her. He had lived a great and prosperous life, building many businesses and eventually marrying and having children. He died a happy man. But Theus's death saddened fortuna greatly. It's said she wasn't seen for many moons and the religion of Poderism fell into obscurity until....
