== The Cult of Miracle ==
Cult was founded by Arkan the I, the first grand Ressurectionist, and one of most favoured followers of First Prophet. Under his ruleship two major philars of cult belief were created - ten lessons, and saint worship.
Ten lessons are 10 rules to live by in peace with Miracle, that were based on life of First Prophet, and miracles he was part of. Those are:
1 Don't be afraid of worldy dangers, for Miracle is your protector
2 Dedicate your pain to the Miracle, for pain is road of life
3 Never doubt in Miracle, for everyone has place in its plans
4 Don't stop in spreading truth of Miracle, for paralysis of hearth is paralysis of soul
5 Never stop in fighting demon worshippers, for they reject Miracle
6 Be weary of pleasures of flesh, for they will pull you away from Miracle
7 Enforce your will on the earth, for its your gift from Miracle
8 Controll your passions, for they are winds that will split you from Miracle
9 Be fortress of truth on face of earth, for only best are Miracle chosen
10 When times come don't be afraid to sacrefice yourself. Your life was given by miracle, and one day you will give it back.
Those lessons are reason of pondering of generations of sholars, but official doctrine of church is that they go in rising order. First three are demanded from all worshippers, next three from wariors, nobles, and people of influence, next three from priests, and temple guards, and last one is demanded only from Ressurectionists.
Church hierarchy is simple. At the bottom there are acolites, people that still take their priestly lessons. After person stops being acolite, they can chose two paths. Path of scroll or path of shield.

First one leads to becoming priest, missionary, hight priest, Ressurectionist, and then Grand Ressurectionist. As person goes throught this hierarchy they are revealed more and more secrets, rituals, and even are teached blessings (priestly spells). Ressurectionists are called so because they are teachen blessing of life, only way to bring way the dead that is not belived to be consorting with demons (anything that is phisicaly dealing with souls of men is considered to be demonology). To cast bleesing of life whole conclave, all 21 ressurectionists including the Grand one, have to met, and confirm need to use power of Miracle this way.
Way of the sword is even simpler, you become, temple guardian, grave guardian, and and grave saint. As you rise in ranks and become grave guard you are expected to drink undead blood poision, and forced to suffer. Those that survive 10 hours of this totrute are healed by hight priests, who cast on them multiple blessings. To become Grave Saint you first have to be in Grave guard in for one houndred years, and then you are put in grave made of solid gold for a week. If miracle puts its gaze on them and transforms them they becoem grave saints, otherwise they turn into solid gold, and are put in baracks of grave guard.
Cult of saint is idea that all gods that people of Gloria worship are in fact aspects of Miracle, and because of this ther are ougt to be acknowleged as saints, and used as way to convert those of other religions. This religous syncretism works, and in fact more and more people across are starting to worship Miracle.
Cult is also used to give honors to great Heroes, and statesmen of Radmir nation.
