Phoenism

Is a religion that was founded in Falnir. They believe that the Phoenix is a god.

creation of the world
First day: The creation of the phoenix, a being with immense power and wisdom. With his creation an enormous explosion of light without sound happened. He was the only thing in the universe that gave light now.

Second day: The phoenix, still juvenile and young, was discovering his powers and what he was, felt alone in the universe that was still empty and couldn’t believe that he was alone. So he fly around the universe. The burning sparks that came out of it’s wings became the stars that lighted up the heavens and the universe.

Third day: After an entire day of flying around the phoenix’s embers where getting smaller, they became planets and moons. At the end of this day, the phoenix, exhausted of flying around with no one to find landed on a solitary world to rest.

Fourth day: The day of tears. The phoenix saddened that he was alone started crying. His tears formed up the oceans, rivers and lakes.

Fifth day: the phoenix no longer wanting to be alone, created life with his powers. He made animals to his image and animals not in his image. He played with a lot of them. But these beings where small compared to him and didn’t have any of his powers. Because of this he killed a lot of them. Death was created and life if it wanted to exist would have bring up youngs. The creation of the circle of life.

Sixth day was a day of rest. He enjoyed his creations and let them live happily ever after.

Zeventh day: looking to the stars he saw potential to create more life, giving himself a purpose. But knowing that we would have to leave this planet for some time he created a new kind of species, a sentient species. Humans. To ensure that they would be wise he made multiple races of men, so that tey would learn from each other and live in harmony with each other and protect nature as he intended it to be.

first phoenists
After milennia of creating new life the Phoenix discovered that he had to send reminders tot he worlds that he had left in the hands of his creations. He could not go there himself, his return would devastate the planet since his immense power is so big. So he created emissaries, miniversions of himself to go back to those worlds as reminders of who created them. Each of these reminders can perform one act, after that, they become a statue. So did it happen to the people of Falnir. At the old tower of Faldenburg. A phoenix landed and destroyed part of the building, showing his immense power and explaining what he was. All bowed to him. He gave this people two items: the Phoenica and the phoenixbanner. After that, he closed his wings and turned into a statue of mostly redstone. The book, the phoenica mentioned that a true phoenist had to make the test of faith before being called a true phoenist, a test that can only be performed under the personal oversight of the emissary.

The holy site and converting
the only holy site is the old tower of Faldenburg in Falnir. It is the only place where people can convert to phoenism. Converting is jumping into a lake of lava, trusting that you will survive jump through the lava.
