The Gods of Sea and Stars

The Gods of Sea and Stars are a pantheon worshipped primarily in the Ascadian Isles and the lands of the Trade Lords. The faith began in ancient Ascadia, supposedly during the earliest centuries after Man's Arrival in Tellandor. It has faded in prominence in modern times, losing ground first to the Great Church and later to the Church of the One, though it has also grown to new lands south and east via the Opening of the Ways.

The Gods themselves are a family (partially by blood and partially by law), oriented around the Lord of Waves and the Herald of Dawn, who together guided the first men to the shores of Ascadia some 8,000 years hence (per the mythos).
