Almadorian Pantheon

The Almadorian Pantheon was a religion primarily practiced in the Kingdom of Almador. Presently, it is the smallest minority religion in the Aurlûnor Velande, with only 150 people adhering to the religion, mostly underground or hidden. It is the oldest continuing Elven religions in the world.

The Almadorian Pantheon was heavily persecuted by the rise of Twin Dragon, due to its "paganist depictions of a different God-King ruling over Celestial Elves". It was likely purged due to its followers not believing in Sareariel Lelya-Earcala's divinity. Multiple attempts at keeping the religion alive were made, and many followers remained stubborn in Sachómar, were they created an "Almadorian Enclave". This was eventually destroyed in the year 247ACA as part of the enforcement of the state religion, following Valiel Lenwa's revolt, due to the amount of damage that free religion caused the nation. Although many followers did eventually convert to Twin Dragon, some remained resistant, resulting in the Red Canal Incident, which saw the death of hundreds of Almadorian Pantheon worshippers, including the High Priest.

Presently, the Almadorian Pantheon is classified as an extremist group seeking to overthrow the Velereth. Although attacks from Pantheon members are extremely rare, many of their attacks were reported to be unorganized and seems to only target temples at the present. No actual attempts by the Pantheon were made on the Velereth's life since the year 247ACA. It is likely that temples are hidden underneath the city of Lhûmar and Silamar among poorer peoples, who are disgruntled with the leadership, or down on their luck.

Creation Myth
Born from a previous cycle, the Divine Phoenix known as Xalos, rose with a thunderous roar to re-create the cycle a new. With it, the Phoenix would dissolve itself, with it's streams of blood forming the many stars in the sky, it's feathers and beak, creating the many worlds that inhabit the stars cycling it, with the nails forming the asteroids.

The creation of the world, which was known to the Almadorians as "Celana", was filled with life by the divine, Galariel, and became known as the role as the mother goddess of the world, residing on the world of her creations. She would run into a problem, where much of her plants and attempts at creating life would not come to be, and would feel heartbroken whenever she watched them die. One day, the sea goddess, Lynari, would arrive at the plane, crashlanding into the world together with a series of meteorites that would become known as thalassite (or "prismarine" in modern tongues), bringing forth water to the world, and formed the very clouds and storms that would benefit Galariel. Massive trees grew, with many plants and animals roaming around from Galariel's desperation into figuring out what was wrong. When she noticed this strange new liquid that would actually benefit her animals, she took the liberty to meet Lynari, and together, the two would quickly bond, and would together, continue to work together into making Celana into a thriving, living and breathing world.
