Vehirism

 

Vehirist religions hold Vehira to be the primary Creator Goddess, and mother to the Siblings, while Azane assumes the role of consort - typically granted powers on par with or less than those of Siblings. Most Vehirist scripture represents Azane as a kind of absentee parent, disinterested in the affairs of the other gods or mortals, and fixated on the task of maintaining the orderly movement of the celestial spheres.

There have been many different Vehirist religious traditions dating back to the beginning of the Third Epoch when independent religions are beleived to have arisen in southwestern Jumira, Waeyron, Sekhu, western Ayodesh and across all of the Senecian Archipelago.

Sometime around 1400 BCB, the Vehirists in southwestern Jumira reconciled their world views with Azanists from northeastern Jumira. Similarly Vehirists in western Tulosz reconciled their world views with Azanists from eastern Tulosz. Each of these events gave rise to their own Unionist traditions.

Meanwhile, the Waeyroni and Sechuan Vehirists remained true, as did Vehirists in western Ayodesh, who did not encounter Azanists until probably about 1000 BCB.

Unlike within the Azanist tradition, where Vehira is sometimes denied entirely (because the religions arose in places where Vehira is not visible in the sky), in the Vehiran religions there are no significant groups who deny the existence or even the divinity of Azane.
