Cult of Versiah

Summary & Beliefs
The Cult of Versiah believes one thing; soon, Versiah will come down and bless all who have given up their lives to Versiah by blessing their soul to the Unbyun. Followers of Versiah believe that death is the ultimate step to life. Rather than fear it, they welcome it with open arms. They believe that death is the goal that all life should achieve, as when you die, Versiah uses your body as a vessel for the angels of Unbyun, where they send messages of Versiah directly to the people. These angels are called Byuns. The Unbyun is a place in Heaven where followers of Versiah become Byuns, spreading the message of Versiah. This can only be achieved if Versiah itself kills you, allowing your soul to pass to Unbyun.

Long ago, before the start of Earth, Versiah caused stars to die and planets to suddenly combust. There were many planets with life that Versiah accidentally destroyed in an instant because of their presence. Millions of years later, Versiah was roaming our galaxy and started sleeping. They slept in our solar system while the sun was being born and our planets were forging. They woke up to a fully formed solar system and in awe at how the planets weren't exploding and the sun wasn't turning into a dwarf.

Versiah stayed in the solar system, believing that if they left and came back, the solar system will die. They stayed and became the giver of death, setting boundaries on every planet that life shall not cross, because Versiah believed that death is the ultimate gift of life, the end of life is why life is so precious.
