Our Religion may seem simple at first glance but it is far more complex than one might think. The Creator and the Destroyer are two halves of the same whole. Also referred to as Light and Dark respectively, and colloquially called “They”. Some of the devout may refer to them by gender pronouns based on their own faith and inner connection and none are considered incorrect, merely informal. The Creator is depicted as a golden tree, while the Destroyer is depicted as a black flame. They represent the Balance in all things, as you cannot have one without the other and this balance can be found in all living things.
Mages especially feel this Balance, believing themselves to be curators of it, an extension of The Creator and the Destroyer. Magic is not inherently good or evil and it can be used to create just as much as it can be used to destroy.
