Thaerism, also known as the Thaerist Faith is a monotheistic religion based on the teachings and wisdom of Thaer. Its adherents, known as Thaerists, believe in a single deity (Thaer), who passed on his teachings to Matilda. It is one of the major world religions with over a billion worldwide followers.

Belief

In Thaerist Belief, Thaer is all-existing and all-knowing. Matilda found Thaer's existence during He set out a list of edicts and conducts for the Prophet Matilda to teach followers of Thaerism.

Thaerists are told to believe in five core precepts:

• Peace. This principle guides all meditation and interactions with all others. It preaches to act without recklessness, and to view the actions of others, even your friends, with a restrained mind.

• Knowledge. Those who don't understand this basic precept are quick to fear. Thaer adherents are taught to accept knowledge and an understanding of the world and laws of nature around them.

• Serenity. A subtle extrapolation of the first precept, this reminder to act dis-passionately in every deliberation.

• Harmony. Those who cannot comprehend the threads that unify all life will view existence as random and without purpose.

• Transcendence. Despite that death is inevitable to everyone, your quintessence will surpass your mortal being into the Luminiferous Aether, where the end of mortal existence is not to be overly mourned. We are part of an energy larger than ourselves, and we play roles ina cosmic fabric that outstrip our incarnate understanding.

Thaerists are told to stay faithful to these precepts, and regularly question whether they understand it. Thaerists, no matter which country, are raised patriots.
