Lunaism

Lunaism is a religion where people worship the Moon. Lunaism also follows a bunch of rules which are shown down below:


 * 1) Luna does allow the worshiping of multiple religions, because she thinks people deserve to have freedom.
 * 2) You should pray to Luna each night, if you do so you will get more lucky and healthy. If you fail to do so, she will punish you. Making you have bad luck for the entire day.
 * 3) You should build a small shrine or a temple to worship Luna at. This rule should be followed strictly, because most of the ceremonies occur near these shrines.
 * 4) If you murder someone who is a Lunaist, you will be punished by being kicked/exiled out of the Lunaist church for a very long time.

Lunaist Towns: Gigney, Russantia, Neu_Misahr, Valoria, Diamond_Light, Uykhthya, New_CoolioCity, Ducklandia, and potentially more.

Hiearchy
The Hiearchy of Lunaism is actually kinda simple. In the head of the church The Bishop stands. Then there are The High Priests which are the one of the most devoted members to Lunaism and they recruited a lot of members, written holy books, created lore or organised events. Then there are Priests which are the students of High Priests and they help with ceremonies and recruiting. A High Priest can only have a single student that they will choose during a ceremony. The last role is a Follower which is a role for those who praise Luna.

Aetherian Culture
The Aetherian Culture is probably the oldest culture in Rathnir that is still known, as it dates back to 3000 years BFOA. It still lives on today in many areas in Haven. The center of Aetherian culture has moved from Gigney to Neu Misahr. The Aetherian conlangs are still in heavy WIP, but functioning sentences can still be made.

Mythology
At first, there was nothing but three. Mareunis, Skoney and Luna. Then, they agreed on something: that there shall be light. And it was good. They made a land that they called "Pax Atlas" except Skoney, who called it Paxia. They decided to divide the land. Skoney was given the northern lands. He had his throne in a land he called "The Blue Azure". Mareunis was given the oceans and seas. He had his throne in "Poseidon's Keep". While Luna was given the south. She decided to not have her throne on this land, but to create her own earth. She created what we call the moon today. And near the great peak, there were the largest island. She had her throne in a fort named "Diana's Keep". After, they looked to create something else than mindless animals. They created... Humanity. They made multiple varieties. Hundreds! Thousands! And to balance the world, they created monsters. With only a dozen varieties, though strong enough. They were given abilites to balance it even more. Though, both factions were completely mindless. So, they gave Humanity... intelligence. While the monsters? Some stayed stupid. But one kind was given a minor amount of intelligence: Enderians.

The gods began to disagree alot. They disagreed on almost everything. The gods became angrier and angerier. Thus, an every man for himself war commenced. Skoney created Aralius, the diety of combat war. And also ForsakenKnight. Those who were touched by him were cursed to die. But they did not have 100% of their power. Still they managed to defeat Mareunis. He fell into the void, but before he could fall in the void Luna grabbed his hand and gave him his weapon, a trident. They marched to The Blue Azure with an extremely bloody battle ensuing. Though, Skoney was forced to surrender. The 1st Coalition ended with a Lunaist victory. And massive land grabs were made. In an unspecified time, in Russantia, two to-be prophets were fulfilling their daily duties, when The First Miracle happened. Tomhins, a depressed alcoholic received visions of his future and great luck, he was told to spread the word of Luna and her blessings. Tomhins and greyTUBBY, complying with the prophecy, got exiled out of Russantia, for they were called insane and a menace.

Disguised, they went back, only to find fellow cultists hiding and their altar destroyed. greyTUBBY and Tomhins, angered, cursed the city for their heresy.

After a time, Russantia was cleared out of its heresy and it is now filled with peace to this day.

On August 16th 2021 something happened in the Russantia St. Pinkos Cathedral. The evil fcrces spoke through a chicken, the gateway to the end was opened, aswell as the gateway to The void and then water began falling from the sky. Crystal began dripping, then it turned into glass. And The prophets got a message from the messenger of Luna. They had to travel to a Birch Field in the continent of Sparwood and kill the evil forces. then they had to free 2 prophets that were in the form of 2 wolves. When they got there they fought a giant, wither skeletons and a lot of beasts that kept them from getting into The cave. After that hard fought battle they managed to finally get in, they gave the wolf prophet bones, but they didnt know what was awaiting them..... out of nowhere a Wither spawned and they had to defeat it. After they defeated it, it dropped a magical wither star that they had to use for a sacrifice that must be done when it was full moon in real life. And if they did that, they would gain Luna's power that will help them later at a future time. [I'm going to continue putting it up to date later.]
