===Syncretism with AsatruUlvriktru===
When Asatru was introduced from viking traders from [[Eyjaria|Eyjarian]] in the early 700s AD. Early Akuanist scholars theorized that both religions are true and the gods referenced by Akua are the same ones the AsatruUlvriktru worship. They theorizing that where Akua was more involved in Borea, the gods referred in the AsatruUlvriktru hold domain else where. It should be noted, that these early theologians never traveled to Concord and thus never visited a real Asatru temple. Relaying on stories brought by merchants and traveling priests to help fill the narrative they was trying to understand. The regionalized and highly diverse nature of Akuanism interacted in several ways.
 
Shrines (non-Akuan) along the southern western coast included religious imagery of AsatruUlvriktru origin. Example including ''Gammeltre'' shrine which has a curved imagine of Thor into it's largest branch and still has prayer sheets offered only in Eyjarian. It should be noted that the language in the prayer sheets have not updated to modern Eyjarian language customs.
 
Shines (both Akua and non-Akuan) make use of extensive use of AsatruUlvriktru symbolism.
 
Shines (of Akua) have select prayers that are still held in old Eyjarian, these prayers are only held twice a year and considered to be some of the more archaic in nature.
