Halianism

Halianism was believed to be lost with sunken cities of Calder and Darya. Halianism is the worship of the God of the sea Anath, Anath was a generous and kind God but do not mistake his kindness for weakness. Anath is not offended easily yet his punishments are harsh.

Darya was a prosperous city with many technological advances in redstone, knowledge they gained from Anath. Darya was feared by many as it seemed its defenses were impenetrable. With no conflict from the outside it gave way for growth of the city and its people, but it wasnt what was on the outside that was there undoing it was from the inside. The senator of Darya, Nerine was a nice and kind man on the outside but greedy and corrupt on the inside. He is known for being selfish and protective of his items offering very little for Anath, Anath was displeased and sent a Tsunami hitting the senators house completely destroying it along with his valuables. The anger the Senator took control and he convinced the citizens of Darya to destroy the Temple and Altar for Anath. Stricken with grief and anger Anath flooded the city with his tears as the pain of his people turning on him was overwhelming.

The neighboring town Calder heard what had happened, frightened at what that had seen they started giving many valuables so that their fate may not be the same. However much they gave it really never seemed good enough for Anath, after what had happened to Darya Anath became reclusive and silent. Calder with all that it had given and for nothing in return the people began to sink into poverty. The people left the town in search of a new home and work, with the city empty Anath wept again flooding Calder.

For many years Anath lived in solitude and Halianism was lost, until a man sailing the seas was exploring the oceans for treasure found the lost city. He found artifacts and religious text, with interest he set up an altar and gave an offering but to no avail it was not answered. The man then sold the artifacts and texts to historians, the historians tried but got so answer as well, the items were stored away regarded as useless. At the museum an accident occurred setting fire to the building and all that remained was the artifacts and texts of Halianism. A man by the name of Leven had seen what had happened and discovered the items and took them.

Leven was a descendant of a family from Calder and grew up knowing very little about where his family came from, Leven decided if he couldn't get answers from his family he would find his own and that he did. As a descendant of Calder Anath could feel his presence and watched over him witnessing Leven giving an offering, Anath gave him a Trident and commanded Leven to build a Temple and get more followers. Anath had finally returned realizing his people needed now more than ever.
