Gwirionedd

The primary religion found throughout Brenin.

Believing the world has four sets of pantheons; the Hollol/Uchafbwynt, the Uchaf/Uchel/Isel, the Taflu/Diafol, and the Bywyd.

Hollol/Uchafbwynt:

The creators of the universe and first life, those who have left the world for varying reasons.

Uchaf/Uchel/Isel:

The first life in the universe as well as the immortals.

Taflu/Diafol:

The second life in the universe, created by the immortals.

Bywyd:

The third life in the universe, created by the universe itself. They believe Dynols are a fourth generation of Bywyd.

Chwedl y Duwiau = Fable of the Gods

Adria was the first to appear, and out of loneliness, created Paaveli, who, in a fit of anger after an argument, created Salvator the kind. The three, unable to come to agreements and constantly fighting, created Eligius, the wise, who was to be the judge and end of all fights, however when the three attempted to kill Eligius for disagreeing with them, Eligius created Beata the strong, for protection and limited the three's ability of creation and destruction. The latter of which offended the three greatly and resulted in a great war between the five.

To appease the three original Hollol, Eligius created Bywyd; who was split into two, Bydysawd, who consisted of Gofod and Amser, and Myd, who consisted of the Bydysawd children, Aer and Ddaear, Aer bred with itself to birth Dwr, who then bred with Ddaear to birth Anianoi Famau, who is referred to as the Natural Matriarch (mother nature). Anianoi Famau's first child, born to Aer, is Tan, who lives in a constant state of war with Dwr and Ddaear.

It's at this point that the three original Hollol, seeing the possibilities that could arise from the creation Eligius gave them, began to create life.

Paaveli created the first life, the Uchel, who consisted of Zaire, Qiu, Waiola, Berrak, Pyrrhus, Eideard, Iodocus, Vinh, Placido, Clovis, and Taavetti.

When Adria and Salvator seen the first Uchel, they felt an attraction towards them, therefore Adria created the Uchafbwynt, which acted as hosts for the Hollol, placing a part of their souls in them and mated with the Uchel, Paaveli, angry and jealous of this act, created the eleventh and last Uchel, Taavetti who was the embodiement of beauty and desire, and whome only found Paaveli attractive. Through the breeding of the Uchel and the Uchafbwynt, the Uchaf was born, the first semi-mortal race; Olavi from Qiu and Salavator, Iver from Zaire and Salvator, Jari from Iodocus and Adria, Alva from Waiola and Salvator, Xenon from Zaire and Adria, Udom from Berrak and Salvator, Onur from Eideard and Adria, Halvar from Clovis and Paaveli, and Gautamar, born from Taaveti and Paaveli.

When the Uchaf began to be favored by the Uchafbwynt, as they were their birthed children instead of creations, the Uchel grew jealous and angry, specifically Iodocus, Clovis, and Placido. Eventually attacking the Uchaf, however after Clovis killed Xenon, Adria appeared before the Uchel and forced them to stop before cursing them, making them unable to ever physically harm the Uchaf again. Iodocus however, still ripe with anger convienced his brother Qiu to create a fourth race of beings, and so Qiu eingeneered the Diafol, a race of many that Iodocus, Clovis, and Placido sent after the eight remaining Uchaf.

Seeing the Diafol being created, Eligius warned the Adria, Paaveli, and Salvator, however the latter pleaded with his siblings to not take action, which they agreed not to do. Knowing the outcome, as well as the eventuality of the Uchel's disdain for any who shared their home due to their creator's anger and jealousy, Eligius created the three realms, Albios, for those who would follow the Duw, Arall for who would oppose them, and Adref for his creation, the Bywyd, which had just created the Elfen Fyw (found below), allowing for mortal life.

However when the Diafol managed to kill Alva, Adria appeared before the Uchel once more, this time with the anger of her sister, Paaveli, and imprisoned Iodocus, Clovis, Placido, and Qiu, along with all of the Diafol, trapping them in Arall.

Paaveli, out of guilt for indirectly causing the death of two of Alva's children, gave separation to the races, creating Uwch for the Uchafbwynt and Uchaf, and Nefoedd for the Uchel.

Salvator, saddened by the hurt the Uchel felt at not only the favoritism of the Uchaf, but also the banishment of their siblings, created the fourth race, Canolbarth, a companion race to the Uchels, with each of the remaining Uchel getting a companion who was to serve them absolutely. Rhona for Barrak, Narcissa for Vinh, Wynne for Pyrrhus, Agda for Waiola, Nahia for Zaire, Vlasta for Eideard, and Vitaliya for Taavetti. When the Uchel and Canolbarth bred, their mix raced children made up the fifth race of Duw, the Isel, who are considered both superior and inferior to their parents.

After being imprisoned with the Diafol, Iodocus demanded Qiu to continue to make the creatures and to build him, Clovis, and Placido an army to lead against the Hollols. While in creation, the four Uchels began to breed with some of the Diafols, creating the sixth race of Duw, the Taflu, which are a mix of Uchel and Diafol.

Anianoi Famau had given birth to four more children, the first being Aer Anadlu, with Aer, with Dwr, she birthed Dwy Anadlu, with Ddaear, she birthed Ddaear Anadlu, and with Tan, she birthed Tan Anadlu. All of whom make up the Elfen Fyw, who give birth to all mortal life, including the Dynols.

When this was discovered by Adria, Paaveli, and Salvator, they attempted to play apart in the mortal's lives, however discovered it to be one of the limitations placed on them by Eligius upon his creation. After begging Eligius to allow them to affect the Mortals, and being denied, each did one of the three Moral Reactions that forever intertwined the the Duws and Bywyds (Elfens/Dynols).

Paaveli, out of anger, informed all the Uchel, Canolbarth, and Isel, including Iodocus, Clovis, Placido, and Qiu of Mortal life, convincing them that they are now the Duw's favorite children, with free will and no fate, causing Iodocus to redirect his anger towards the Dynols. However having the opposite affect with the Isel, who felt joy for there being a mortal being, without the fate to always be the Hollols toys.

Adria, out of jealousy, gave the Isel and Diafol the ability to breed with the Dynol, finally, indirectly making her own race, the Ddraig and Aelodau.

Salvator however, created Hapus, a world in Albios for Mortals to go upon death, asking Eligius to allow those who did great things to go there. Eligius, explaining the concept of mortality instead made it so that those who did what was right would ascend there, gaining a form of immortality. Upon learning of Salvator's gift to the mortals, Eligius discovered Paaveli's action of telling the Uchels of the existence of mortal life, as well as Adria's action of giving the Isel the ability to breed with the Dynol, he grew angry and entrapped them in a fourth realm, Uffern, where they would be allowed to do nothing but watch his creation as it grew, eventually gaining sapience and learning of the Duws.

Salvator was also trapped in Uffern when Eligius discovered he was doing actions for his sisters, one of which was giving Iodocus the knowledge to create a door, connecting Arall and Adref, nullifying their punishment of being unable to create or affect. Beata, who remained Eligius' loyal brother, friend, and servent, would eventually, having no purpose now that Paaveli, Adria, and Salvator were not a threat to Eligius, fall into an eternal deep sleep, as Eligius watches over his creation evolve.

One of the other actions Salvator did for his sisters, was give the remaining Uchel in Nefoedd the ability to create three items each, to be given to the Mortals, under the guise that doing so would make them the Hollol's favorite children. Upon finding this out, Eligius explained to them that they were lied to by Paaveli into thinking the mortals to be their favorites, and that there were no favorite children now that he was the last Hollol.

This gave the Uchels peace of mind, and caused them to look at mortals with less hatred, however still having a superiority over the race for being so weak. When the Uchafbwynt discovered their original selves had been locked away, began a war with their children against Eligius, who upon seeing their reaction, realized he had finally made a mistake, and therefore his entire being, who was created to end fighting, had failed, creating a war. Causing him to place himself in exile, no longer allowing himself to create or effect anything that had already been created.

The Uchel, who had been given several piece of Hollol knowledge, discovered how to make, and created a door that connected Uwch with Nefoedd. The Uchels, still angry with the Uchafbwynt for favoring the Uchafs, entered an endless war between the Uchels and Canolbarths, with the Uchafbwynt and Uchafs.

The Isels, finding and wanting no part in the war, decided to look over Hapus and the mortals instead. With some even breeding with the Dynols, creating the first demi race of Lled. Who hold all the strengths of their Duw parents, but the mortality of their Dynol parents.

After Iodocus created the door between Arall and Adref, letting the Diafol and Taflu ravage and pillage Adref, the two races would go on to make spawn of their own with the Dynols who survived their attack.

The Diafol spawned the Aelodau, mostly Dynol in appearance, with almost total biological control over their bodies, some even having the ability to rapidly evolve based on environment and situations. Aelodau are typically feral in nature, and extremely dangerous due to their abnormality. Considered the toughest mortals, however extremely rare as the time it takes for one to mature and become self-sufficient is unlikely to occur being being killed.

The Taflu on the other hand, would create the Ddraigs, a species hated by the Duw and feared by the Dynol, finding a home with neither. Typically looked down upon with disgust, due to their Diafol blood, Ddraig are the only mortal creatures able to use Hudoliaethau, a form of magic that has given them special roles in some Dynol courts and societies. With two sub-races being born from them, the Ledrith and Hudau. Hudaus are the most common to be found in courts for their ability to enchant, this usually being items of Kings and Knights. while the Ledrith are more commonly found venturing the land, for their ability of illusion typically causes mistrust from most.

Chwedl y Dynol = Fable of the Human

Of the many children Anianoi Famau bore, none held more intelligence than the Dynol, born from her affair with Aer Anadlu, these bipedal beings took control of Myd almost immediately after birth.

The Dynols, Mab and Ferch, birthed four children, two male, Gyntaf and Tydydd and two female, Ail and Pedwer. Gyntaf and Ail traveled to the North-West of Adref and settled what is now Teyrnas Brenin, with their children making up the Gwyn, while Tydydd and Pedwer traveled to the South-East of Adref and settled what is now Teyrnas Ymerawdwr, their children are the Melyn.

The paler race of Dynol, often with curly brighter hairs and eyes. Gwyn have typically been found to be more liberal in ideas, forming Teyrnas Brenin, a federal state which is headed by it's emperor who meets with the High Kings of the lands, who meet with the Kings, who deal with the Dukes, Earls, Barons and courts of their land.

The tanner race of Dynol, almost always with straight, darker hairs and eyes, the Melyn are found within their unitary state of Teyrnas Ymerawdwr, which usually holds authoritarian ideas, and is headed by it's emperor, who deals with it's _??_.

Just a couple of lifetimes before Mab and Ferch, Anianoi Famau gave birth to the first Dynol race, which the Gwyn and Melyns refer to as Creadurs. With less intelligence, and taking on a more beastial appearance as they took after their various Elfen Fyw parents, these creatures are quick to temper and live through out Adref.

Only in recent history was it discovered that a fourth Dynol race had been birthed, in a land across the sea. The darker race of Tywyll who lived on the smaller continent of Teyrnas Pren Mesur.
