===Cult of Fortuna===
The Cult of Fortuna is considered a small sect of Clarityism, although its history dates back past the religion's founder, Guiliano Bardi. The number of followers is unknown, however it is there is currently between 1,500 to 3,000 followers. The beliefs of the cult has changed over the years with the present day cult having similar beliefs to that of Clarityism. The main difference revolves around who is considered the higher deity of the Aspirian Isles. Unlike most Claritists who believe the higher deity is Unus, cultists instead believe that it is actually the Goddess Fortuna. To cultists, the act of placing Fortuna in the position of a lesser deity and putting another above her is blasphemy. This has been the main cause of conflict between Claritists and cultists with the church in 1014 declaring the Cult of Fortuna as heathens. With the birth of Marchellic Clarityism in the 1600s to 1700s, cultists have stated that the idea of a new lesser deity sent by Unus as sacrilege against Fortuna. Entering into present day, the cult has shown their hatred towards Lyone who many Claritists believe is this lesser deity. This has led to a few assassination attempts against Lyone by cultists, leading to extensive offensives to wipe out the cult.
