Cruor Cruoris

Cruor Cruoris, also known as "the Cruor Heresy" or "Utumnism", is the only known religious belief practised by the wirl people.

Since there is no known organisation that dictates cruor doctrine most of what is known comes from it's practitioners, mostly from the now ruinous citadel of Utumno.

Even though every known practitioner seemed to follow the former baron of Utumno, back when the fortress was still standing, it is not certain whether this was for theological reasons or simply a sociopolitical necessity.

It is unknown how much of the actual doctrine predates the incorporation of the wirlomei as part of the Eastern Empire and what is result of soleannen syncretism, as most of the assumed doctrine comes from what could be deciphered from the manuscripts of Utumno before those were destroyed alongside the entire city they were kept on.

Beliefs
From what could be deciphered from the manuscripts it's known Cruor Cruoris is a monotheist religion, venerating a three aspect "god" of name unknown. The three aspects of this nameless deity are:

Truwushi: Seems to translate literally as "work". It is venerated by doing grind or build work and appears to be somehow related to the idea of "appeasement". When "god" appears in this form it takes the shape of a group of exactly seven Creepers.

Boskumsi: Literally "rest". It is venerated by enchanting and farming, appears to be connected to fear. When "god" appears in this form it takes the shape of a gloaming of oversized Phantoms.

Unwekém: Literally "ambition". It is venerated by going fishing and by performing other activities (all of which have been scribbled from the original manuscripts, presumably by Axyr), it is related to cruelty. When "god" appears in this form it takes the shape of an all-encompassing storm.

Additional annotations found on the manuscripts signal the world as a diseased entity whose life is held only by "god". Thus, the disappearance or debilitation of one of the venerated aspects would correspond with a signal of the apocalypse, and the death of Rathnir.
