With regards to the status of da Kirkja Dverga, the sects of the dwarven faith, the High Prophet of the Grand Kingdom of Urguan, and other associated concerns.

 

The dwarven faith is as old as our beards, having been given in prophecy to our progenitor himself; Urguan Silverbeard. Yemekar the Godsmith, the Brathmordakin and their paragons predate almost every other faith of descendants. Yet despite this prestigious pedigree, it has never had the high administrative force associated with organized religion (as found in the Church of the Cross and the Keepers of the Flame).

 

Most recently in Urguani culture, we have had a growth of faith with the restoration of the Fourth Grand Kingdom. This growth was not however led by a single unifying force, but rather by elders from across the board fostering their own traditions across multiple different sects. In most recent years especially it has reached its zenith; and we witness nearly one in five clans claiming to have their own cult separate from the average dogma.

 

There have been far more religious leaders of Urguan who have existed as part of cults and sects than there have been any dedicated to a unifying dogma. They have had participation in either the Hefrumm Seers, the Mountain Seers, the Rhun Oathed, the Cult of the Mask, or the Cult of Kjellos. Sometimes when I wake up in the morning, I wonder if I might start a new religious cult by accident.

 

Therefore the office of the High Prophet shall be declared null and void, and da Kirkja Dverga shall become a council of all religious leaders of the dwarves to be presided over by the office of the Obsidian Throne.

[Cpt_Noobman 1377]

Thazzaer shakes his head in disappointment. "Da Kirkja Dverga is an institution as old and prestigious as Urguan itself. Never has it's autonomy been violated in such a way. I disagree with most of what Alaric preaches, but the kingdom government has no right to enforce it's will upon the holy clergy with such disregard for tradition... Cults, denominations, rivalries, disunity. There is but one true faith and it is none of those listed"

[Legoboy7984 2441]

"State and religion should be seperate. Believe this could go very poorly. Hopefully things can be changed for the better before it does." Agnar states shaking his head in disagreeance to the missive.

[sneakybandit 1503]

Darek Irongrinder looked over the missive with a curious face, commenting upon it to his golem "An interestin decision, I agree that the clergy has certainty lacked competency since the days of Norli. So perhaps it is time for a change in course."
