Tera is the daughter of Sawain and Fir, with her light she gives strength to living beings during day. Two gods joined together and from their bonding first humans were born.

Inferi-God of treachery, stealing and murder. He resides in the burning lands of underworld. It’s a place where all unjust men are being banished and are being held in constant torture as the servants of the black god.

Lesh-Lesser god that lives in the deepest parts of the forest. He trick those who wonder too deep into the forest and lead them to their death.

Nymphs-Lesser goddesses of streams. They appear to traveling men, seduce them and drown them in their streams to feed their children that live in their waters.

Dryads-Lesser Goddesses of trees, they appear only to these who they fall in love with. They leave their tree form and live among humans with the one they love. Their skin is unnaturally brown and their hair are in colors of leafs. Such dryad can life eternally among humans until her tree dies.

Faires- They are servants of Fir that helps their master tend plants and animals. During night they live inside the flowers. When sun rises they set off to wake all live from the spells of Cichol. They are also known to cast chants that create love between pairs.

Undead- These are the bodies of those whose soul was taken by Inferi. Their corpses stayed behind when their souls was taken to realm of suffering. These bodies are manipulated by the will of Inferi.

Myths:

"There was a day when Yarih stayed behind in the mortal world after his father left. He watched in awe as the daylight grew with Fir taking the domain left by Cichol. Along with her mother, appeared Tera raising from the west and flowing the lands and seas with her beam and heat. Yarih watched as the Goddess of the sun shined more and more brightly. And seeing her beauty, Yarih adoration to Tera grew stronger. But being lost in his feelings he didn’t see that the flames of the Sun overpowered his weak light. Before he realized light of the sun made him slowly vanish. It was then the Goddess of the sun spotted young God of the moon and tried to suppress her beams, unfortunately the stranger still fade away. She begged her mother for help, but Fir didn’t care for the son of her enemy and remained deaf to the pleas. In the last moment, before Yarih paid the ultimate price for his curiosity, Cichol appeared. Great was the anger of God of Death to his son stupidity. God of night summoned vast powers of his magic and banished the day before its time ended. Thus night opposed the day and covered the sun with the blackness. Cichol took his dying son to nurture him in the realms of Gods and vanished from mortal world. Great was fury of Fir but Goddess of Day weren’t strong enough to openly oppose Cichol , and the fury was the only thing left for her.

Yet the story didn’t end in that place- for young children of Gods fell in love with each other. And so from time to time Yarih and Tera met when their way collided and stayed as long as they could together. From their union the first human was born. His power was great and his strength mighty. He had children with spirits and lesser goddesses thus his line spread and grew in numbers. People lived during day when Fir cared for her grandchildren and rested during night when Cichol watched over them. In time humans grew to so big numbers that it put great burden on the world. When other gods were debating what to do, Cichol stepped in. He gave people gift of death. And so every time human reach certain age he withers and dies and thus balance is kept in the word."

Everyone it was fun and all, but sadly due to the distance problems - too far away civilization. Vinr becomes an abondoned village and those who have remained til the end left it. Just a fiew, but still an optimistic company, starts traveling in an unknown direction.

For those who will wander near the remains, here is a description:

Breaking through the cold Northern Forests you stumble across an overgrown road. Interested about its destination you begin to march forward with it, while peeking on your left on the red light of sunset.

After short smooth walk you come into the wooden village lit with lenient light of a young moon. You shout, but no one replies. You enter the huts but all of them are long abandoned. "The village is deserted" someone says, you turn to the voice but its only big magpie screaming from the roof. Your mind must be playing tricks on you.

Maybe it is time to leave those left alone, you think, and starts to draw back toward the road. Magpie watches you with its bird eye, and screams last time as for a goodbye.
