Editing Soukos (section)

==Religion:==

The Soukans exclusively worship a local pantheon of deities originating from the aether and uplifting the disparate tribes formerly inhabiting southern Rinolsol. From then on these entities have been worshipped as gods with the most powerful of them being seen as all members of a complicated divine family tree.

These gods include Zeupiter, leader of the gods and god of the sky, the weather, thunder, lightning and men with each of these aspects also being filled out by a lesser god. Next is Nepseidon, god of the water, the ocean, the sea, sea life, earthquakes and all horses that aren't under the dominion of deadicorn, Hadiese, god of death, law and the underworld, Apolion, god of the sun, prophecy and passion alongside his sister Dianartemis goddess of the moon, the hunt and wild animals. These five gods are the most widely worshipped with the other major gods being Demitere, goddess of farming and fertility, Aphrodinus, goddess of love and sex, Minervus, goddess of art and knowledge and Mares, god of war, rage and honor.

The gods often bestow blessings upon skilled warriors and weapons inside their shrines or should they be particularly loved in battle with cases of warriors suddenly becoming twice as deadly as they already were appearing countless time in Soukan myths due to this godly favor.

No other gods are recognized and worshipped by the Soukans however small temples to these gods appear in the merchant quarter and other districts of city-states where foreigners go.

The churches of Zeupiter, Nepseidon and Hadiese are fierce rivals and constantly battle to see who can make the largest temples with the most offerings. Currently Hadiese is nearing the status of becoming the most venerated god as the war and the death that will come with it comes closer with many warriors praying for their souls to arrive in Elysium, the heroes fields.
