In the Divine Light
Masra was the fastest growing religion in Gorin, rivaling that of Crystalism which was the dominant faith of the Wardash Pact members. However unlike Crystalism, Masra was not focused on death and the Red Lady. It still acknowledged the importance of the Red Lady and her connection with death however Dula, the Masra god of light and life held more power. Dula lives in the Crystal Ridge Mountains and looks down on all from his throne in the mountains. Each day he brings the light from over the mountain and onto the people of Gorin Empire so as to bless them as they grew larger and larger.
Dula had decreed, in the ancient scriptures handed down from those who dwelt in the mountain, that the light of Crystal was to be spread to all lands and bring to them the warmth that the people of Gorin had felt all along. With Dula’s mountain shield and hammer of light that gives life to all. Blue Face, Dula’s son, was the protector of life, who rode a great steed and rode down from the mountains to battle off the demons (plagues) who sought to destroy humanity.
Masra centered around Dula of course, his wife being the Red Lady, who was the dealer of death (but not in any way considered bad). The Red Lady would only accept a soul if the body had gone through proper burial rights. The body would be painted with a mixture of mud and charcoal and then buried in a field of some sort, so that the bodies soul, when going to meet the Red Lady, would pass through the earth, leaving its Divine Energy there with which many things would grow. (Fertilizer!) Lord Kaiser’s had different burial rights, requiring that their face be fitted with a mask made of copper so that the Red Lady would know who it was and give the Lord Kaiser his rightful place in the hall of Mirandi.
Masra was, however, a religion of high tolerance, being a branch off of Crystalism, it was accustom to sharing the religious platform with others. This it what would bring it to be the dominant faith in Gorin and though out the Wardash Pact nations.
Long Live Anthi Oborski, Lord Kaiser of the Gorin Empire, Lord of the Dusk, Right Hand of Dula.
