Creation of the Urikhi

A legend reserved for the holiest of Urikhian Temples, inscribed upon the dread altars, has been told for thousands of years in sermons to the people of Kxlixa Urikhia. Regarded as heresy by the churches of Belora Galveth’ri and the other human nations, it is a tale of corruption and transcendence. Kxli’Ne’Ur, The Being with a Thousand Arms, from the beginning of time, was unable to create life, for his sphere was death, and great pain befell him. He sat upon his solemn throne, and weep blood did he from his many eyes. When the Lady of Life, Meslona, with her lover Atreus created the humans, the Great Eye was struck by jealousy and anger. He plotted for many decades as how to punish these new creations, and make the work of the Lady flawed. His influence slowly clouded the judgement of men, which led to the Second Divide. With each new worshipper, his power over the souls of humans grew. He seduced the prophets with promises of immortality, and gifts did he deliver, by reaching out towards Lesrilon with his arms, and carrying the twin Kings – Pla’re’ghul by his right side, and I’m’ne’fa by his left. He called upon his bastard son, Zhuk’Go’Klek, and demanded that the faithful be shaped in his image, so that the gaze of the Great Eye may forever watch the realms of mortals. So were the Urikhi damned and blessed, soulless children destined to bring fear to the hearts of men ‘till eternity.
