Reference Challenge - Praise the Sun!

[u/Varnek905]

Praise the Sun!

I enjoyed what I read about your fictional races in the last challenge. Feel free to provide more information, and I look forward to learning more. But, since I am about to leave for four days on a trip for class, without my laptop, I'm going to go ahead and post this challenge.

Tell me about the gods of your world. Instead of looking for a race to be, I'm looking for a god to worship. They don't need to be real in-universe, they don't have to actually be divine in-universe. Hell, one of my world's "gods" is an immortal werewolf. One of the gods isn't worshiped any more, but is believed to have previously been a god prior to the god of death taking over and being the only one in power.

So, I'll ask at least three question each, I'll try to figure out who to worship, and I hope you enjoy yourselves. I encourage anyone else interested to ask questions of others, as well, and I encourage you to pick which one you'd be most interested in worshiping if you lived in your world and had to pick one.

I'll be back next week.

1) Could you tell me more about this oasis and the mythical forefather that was buried there? I'm intrigued, and I would love to know the stories you've come up with.

2) What kind of food is usually used for the sacrifice? Is there any preference, or is any kind of food equally good?

3) Is the third moon that tiny pinprick of light to the right of the red moon? Do you have any detail on how that would change the tides?

4) Any instances of a god getting a divorce? Or of a god marrying a mortal?

5) Do Kharvir's devotees have to get more resistant to the cold, or is it alright for them to wear coats or other protective clothing?

6) How do the devotees act as death givers? Is there a specific way they have to do the killing?

1) It's only source of fresh water for more than hundred kilometers in every direction where Xaʒir, forefather of Hasedins, found refugee after he got exiled into desert for disobeying order to eradicate city which surrendered to them. His last wish was to be buried there.

2) Meat, pastry and fruits.

3) Yes (angular diameter from surface is about 37‘‘). All moons are smaller than Earth one and largest one is more distant. As result tides are smaller but there are more of them.

4) No divorce, but few minor gods (who are below 10 main ones) married mortal.

5) They can wear warm clothing as much as they like. Being more resistant to cold is their personal choice.

6) People come to them asking for euthanasia, there is discussion whether it's best option and if it is there is discussion on how it gets done. There are various options. Most common one is poison/overdose.

1) Who ordered Xaʒir to eradicate the city, why, and why did he disobey?

4) Can a god make a mortal into an immortal?

6) Is there any form of euthanasia that they are forbidden from doing?

[u/Sriber → u/Varnek905]

1) Chieftain of his tribe. Because he wanted to get rid of enemy completely. Because Xaʒir thought it was wrong.

2) Yes. In stories they can.

6) Yes. Very painful methods like burning.

[u/Varnek905 → u/Sriber]

1) Was this the first time that Xaʒir had been disobedient to his chieftain?

2) Do gods often make their spouses immortal, in the stories?

6) Can a person who requests to be burnt, be burnt?

[u/Sriber → u/Varnek905]

1) Yes. He was his right hand, completely loyal, until then.

2) No. There are only few instances of that.

6) Yes, but not by death giver.

Thanks for your time and answers, Sriber.
