~Branches Of Eternity~
The Branches
"To the wheat which grows in the fields, to the skies above, the powers flow through the world."
The Branches of Eternity is a polytheistic religion based in Varrel lands of the south-east, where multiple gods control and represent the many aspects of life, and the world.
~History~
It is unclear when The Branches came to be founded though most scholars agree it is far older than the other formal religions across the known world.
The tales go that long ago there was but a single god, one of which who wished for nothing more than to see life spread throughout the universe but it was alone, and as such the task could not be done alone. With its mystical powers the single god created another, one in its image yet slightly different, as where its powers. Together the two set out to create new life, yet the task proved again too much. Finding the need for more aid the gods creating more, each one with their own specific task to see life fill the empty skies.
Time passed and the gods found the worlds so far apart from one another, separated by great distances. It was during this time that a seed was planted, and from this single seed that a tree grew, and grew till its branches spread far across the sky. Touching each and every world it came across the tree gave them life and connected them with one another. Through these branches the gods were able to go where ever they pleased and spread their influence across the unknown universe.
Most of the Branches of Eternity are based on stories passed down from generation to generation, folk lore and sights that cannot be explained, adding a worldly mysticism to the religion.
The Branches is the formal religion of the Varrel and is very accepting of others faiths as the Varrel believe they shouldn't push their ideas on others, not just for their own sake but also because it is said their gods disprove of such acts.
