Adgharhin Way/Deities

The people of Arcachon have historically been animistic in their religious practices. Legend tells of a foreigner from the west who brought with him books wisdom. These books were in a strange language, but were filled with pictures and diagrams. Their material covered a range of topics from farming, to tanning, to tax laws, and so the Arcachon people had begun to adopt the early qualities of civilization without knowing it. The religion of Arcachon is complex, but is concerned mainly with achieving balance in the world through thought, speech, and action. Night and day, masculine and feminine, good and evil - everything has its place. That is not to say that the religion of Arcachon is dark or fatalistic; quite the contrary, followers believe that Nature is inherently good. It is merely the acceptance that darkness cannot be completely extinguished (and in some cases must be embraced) that gives the religion of Arcachon its unique insight.

Adaghar

The Giver of Laws, The Judge, The Watchful Eye, Builder of Cities
Adaghar is the god of Justice, Law, and Civilization. His word is unquestioned, his acts grand and magnificent, and his power an awe to behold. Worshipped primarily among the ruling class, Adaghar temples also serve as public forums for debate and centers of administration and justice. He is reknowned for his fairness.

Senith

The Lovers' Light, The Meadowlark, Composer of Songs, Muse of Poets
Senith is the goddess of all that is developed, proper, and civilized in the world. She inspires great epics, moving operas, tender hearts, and masterpieces of sculpture. Her warm touch is a counterpoint to the sometimes stern fairness of Adaghar, and her worshippers occasionally tend to outnumber those of the other two gods.

Omorthion

Bountiful Harvest, Full Moon, Filler of Bellies, Reaper of Grain
Omorthion has one domain, and one domain only: prosperity. His patient and experienced touch causes the wheat fields of Arcachon to overflow with bounty, providing us the largest excess in the world. His business acumen fills our tax coffers. Omorthion loves, above all things, a good ale, a warm fire, and a balance sheet that screams "profit."

Lyonnith and Lyonnhar

Bringers of the cycles of the day, The Twins, Reason and Resolve
The twin sisters Lyonnith and Lyonnhar create the day and night but always one with the other. They are the balance. That is why on the darkest night there is still some light and during the day there is still some darkness... Legends say that when they become one the world shall end.

Lyonnhar, herself dark as night, brings the day. She is the black spot in the sky always visible where there is light. She leads the dead souls of those that are worthy back for a new life. They say she gave man will.

Lyonnith, fair of face and hair, brings the night. She illuminates the night sky so people may still see. They say the moon and stars shine only for her. She awaits the dead. She gives the worthy dead a choice, to move on or try and go back and be reborn. They say she gave man the ability to think.

Dawn and dusk have traditionally been the times of worship as this is the time when the sister meet, their paths cross.

Inner Teachings of The Twins

The peasants and nobles praise the sister’s as two people whereas the highest level of priesthood know they are one. The normal people are not ready to accept a being that is both negative and positive, it is too much to ask for such small minds so until a time comes and the peoples of the lands can understand concepts outside of good/evil the priesthood will not release the truth as that could crush the sprits of man.
