Themelios

The Faith of Themelios is a religious cult, honoring and praising the God Themelios, carrier and guardian of the World of Life and Sun.

Followers believe bedrock to be the physical embodiment of their God, since it is carrying the Overworld on its shoulders while also containing the horrors of the Underworld beneath it, thus securing the World of Life and Sun from the World of Death and Darkness.

Fundamentals
Witin Themelios, it is believed that the universe was made up of the Overworld beneath the sky, and the Underworld deep below. While the Overworld is the place of Life and Sun, containing peace and love and growth, the Underworld is the place of Horror and Darkness, containing the worst of cruelties. The God Themelios, Carrier and Guardian of the World of Life and Sun, holds the Overworld in its vital position below the sky so that it can prosper and grow life in the Sunlight.

Simultaneously Themelios is suppressing the Underworld below his feet, stomping down the demons and guarding the Overworld from horror and darkness. Through this, Themelios is enabling life and peace in the Overworld, and consequently all people owe him praise and thanks for his continuous sacrifice of holding the World in its position below the Sun and sky.

ccording to believers, bedrock is in fact the physical emobiment of Themelios, as it is carrying the weight of the Overworld on its shoulders while also capping the Underworld in order to contain its horrors beneath. The bedrock layer is considered the shoulders of Themelios, the direct embodiment of the eternal and unbreakable carrier of the World. All occurences of bedrock above the layer are considered miraculous holy sites, worshipped by the followers of Themelios even if those sites are claimed by other cults.
