The Gods of Grendaw part 1

This the first article to help you understand the World that this story takes place in.

There are two main groups of gods worshiped by the Humans of Grendaw. These are the Sylvanic Gods, worshiped by the Fanatics to the South and the dwarves, and the Fridgian, Worshiped by the Vlandstarians and the other humans on the Continent. The Elves and the $%^@s (which are human but mainly accompany another continent) worship gods not related to these two groups.

Both of these groups are related to each other. In fact they have the same ancestor, a god named Goolihody, worshiped by the Elves (ok all peoples of the whole world, including all continents worship gods related to each other). But then they break off. here they are.

The Sylvanic gods are broken into two generations, the some of the sons of Goolihody and their children, who despite being gods are not worshiped by the Fanatics. The sons that are part of the Sylvanic Group are: Megnaforb, god of Fire; AH, God of Tornados; Stibt, God of Thunder; Ki, god of Sand; Bol, god of shadows; Xi-Xi, god of death; and Kortafon, god of blood. Their children are worshiped by the dwarves and will be detailed later.

The Fridgian Gods are composed of Goolihody's other sons and his daughter plus their children, though not the gods spouses. The Remaining Sons are: Serah, God of the Sky; Grendaw, God of stone; Fridge, god of ice; and Mulligan Hills, God of thought. The daughters of Goolihody are: Deema, goddess of agriculture; Blipi, goddess of love; Jakla, goddess of the Moons; and Walla-Weepu, goddess of the water. The other gods and goddesses worshiped by the Followers of the Fridgian gods are: Philleppe, god of the sun and husband of Jakla; Mina Cortex, Daughter of Walla-Weepu and goddess of hunting and animals; Regimax, god of travelers and son of Mulligan Hills; and Sinhaph, goddess mothers and wife of Serah. Of course there are other but they aren't worshiped.
