Deities are known to be very real in this world, so it is rare to find fenva who do not pray or make offerings to seek assistance from the divine.
In the lumena faction, though some people and settlements have patron gods that they devote their lives to, most people look to the appropriate god for the subject they need addressed. For example, even if your town's patron deity is Taivenei, the god of fire, summer, and love, if you sought safe travels at sea, you might instead seek out favour from Yilensat, Fiilan or Arasviin.
Typically, prayers and offerings are acknowledged but not responded to. Some deities respond quite frequently to requests from the fenva while others seldom respond at all, even to their devotees. Still others respond on a whim, either guided by their mood that day or by their interest in a specific request. A lot of factors play into whether a prayer or offering has any effect.
Like fenva, fenvasi also may pray to all deities at Resovinasis. Their divine parent usually serves as a definitive patron deity, but besides that, they typically call to the correct deity for any given situation.
In the vesera faction, almost all prayers and offerings are directed towards Karas. A small minority are directed towards Mirnat, making him the only god that both lumena and vesera acknowledge as legitimate.
By far, Karas is the type of deity that responds to prayers on a whim. In the eyes of the vesera, this means everyone has an equal chance of being selected for a blessing.
Atei is not often sought out, despite his role as the universe's creator and most powerful entity. This is because Atei does not respond to prayer or offerings. The people are aware that Atei rarely interacts with even the deities themselves, content to watch on endlessly. In a sense, he is the guardian of the universe and will not act unless the very fabric of reality is about to be torn apart, such as his sole intervention leading up to the Lamsulkaivas. However, even then, it is not certain he will intervene a second time...
The only individuals Atei interacts with in a semi-regular manner are his two fenvasi children, Ren and Halvatt, as their very existence fascinates him to no end. But for most fenva, it is not known that Atei has fenvasi children. Ren and Halvatt, when it comes up in conversation, attribute their lineage to Yilensat and Lanvir respectively.
Deities are separated into various classes depending on their birth order. Their birth order also generally dictates how powerful they are.
Atei is the deity of creation, endlessness, and nihility. He was the first being to inhabit the universe. Atei himself was originally draconic in nature, but created formshifting and the fenva form in order to contain the endless flow of keirsi that radiated from his draconic body. He resides in the Sovuyu, a plane of existence that is endlessly dense in loose keirsi. Possessing a collected, unreadable demeanour, he enjoys his role as a watcher of the world and seldom intervenes in its affairs. Instead, he finds great amusement in observing his eternal creation, wondering what will play out next in the script.
Atei's symbols are the opal, the dragon, and circles. He does not have a preferred armament and has never been seen in combat.
Atei's first group of offspring, all four of them being created simultaneously. They existed before Arvastaira's physical conception and are unfathomably powerful, only outmatched by Atei himself.
Atei's second group of offspring. With their creation came the creation of physical Arvastaira as it is known, though no other life resided there for quite some time after the fact. Beyond this generation, deities do not have the ability to pass on their draconic traits to their offspring.
Atei's third group of offspring. The first fenva were created after these deities' conception, becoming the first form of non-divine life in Arvastaira. The arva began to cease usage of their draconic forms during this point in time.
Atei's fourth group of offspring. Prior to this class of deities, fenva had no methods of manipulating keirsi. That ability, along with the ability to shift into certain forms, was conferred upon them hereon after.
Atei's fifth group of offspring. With this group came the rest of life in Arvastaira, from animals to plant life to everything in between.
Atei's sixth and final group of children. They came to be near the end of the divine war between Igann and Karas' factions, with the last of them being made right up until the Lamsulkaivas. They are regarded as the beginning of territorial division amongst lumena fenva and vesera fenva.
