Aivintis: Difference between revisions

Line 92:

The Thurids were a powerful theocratic dynasty originating in modern day Redmondburg. Their name comes from their god, Onik Zok Thur (Staynish: Wise Great Master), whom they worshipped as the [[wikipedia:Henotheism|henotheistic]] overlord of the universe. According to surviving historical records, the Thurids claimed to trace their lineage to Onik Zok Thur, which they used to support their position as the dominant political power in ancient Aivintis. Some [[Lerasian Mythology|Lerasians]], believing this Onik Zok Thur to be their lost Hero-God Lerasi, readily converted to the Thurid religion, practicing in state-built churches in large settlements.

In January of the year 0 CE, Goraanjun Thurid named himself King of Kings, Overlord of the Universe, and Heir to Onik Zok Thur. Although primary sources have been nearly all destroyed, historians believe that Goraanjun spent the next ten years conquering smaller tribes and villages around his capital. At some point during these conquests, he died in battle, and his son took over the Thurid Empire. Over the next three hundred or so years, the Thurids had expanded to encompass an area believed to be ~~roughly~~ ~~the~~ ~~size~~ of modern day ~~Aivintis~~. Scholars suggest that this was accomplished through the use of superior tactics and technology, although there is no evidence to support this other than their rapid expansion.
