The folks of The East have many traditions, for they hail the ancestral gods and have had plenty of time to think of ways to honour them.

Soulspeakers

A soulspeaker is someone who's connection to the gods and the dead is strongest within the family. They're the host of all the festivals that happen throughout the year. They're usually an older, wiser being of their family who's often picked by the gods themselves. They can be the keepers of shrines of the deity their family hails to the most, acting as guardians of the god’s sacred property or items. Soulspeakers have not much of a purpose than keeping the traditions and the love for the gods alive.

Festivals of The East

The creatures of The East have a total of three festivals to hail the three main gods - Bevan, Tangrum and Shreya. The festivals have one host, which is the eldest soulspeaker of the appointed god. They usually last up to one day and are not exclusive to only the family of the soulspeaker - all are welcome to the festivals, for the tradition demands there only be one festival for all during a year’s time.

The Eminences

The Eminences are three beings which act as helpers of the gods, each one being appointed to its singular god. They help keep soulspeakers in track and make sure they’re doing their duties, they have a share in some of the god’s business and they help gods in their duties if needed. The Eminences are given a piece of their god’s soul which lets them live an unnaturally long life - most of them usually up to be centuries old. They are also always siblings, triplets - they cannot be randomly picked from one family or another.
The Eminences are three: The Spinner of Life, who hails Tangra; The Weaver of Fate, who hails Shreya; and The Cutter, who hails Bevan.
As of present times, the Eminences are rumoured to be Aadita, Vtora and Gibel Karadaya - descendants of the old family of Karacher.

Superstitions & Prayers

The creatures of The East are more ‘leisurely’ superstitious more than anything else. The superstitions they share are mostly used by old fellows to scare the youngsters.

The number three is considered bad luck in the eastern lands due to their significance to the Eminences. Many try to never travel in the groups of three because it is believed that the Eminences will take personal offence.
If a crow caws during the birth of a creature, it means that it will either stay alone for its entire life or that it will be a widow early on in its life.
Those who hail to no god are believed to be followers of Cadmus and are generally ignored - although few remember him and even fewer share this superstition.
Eating the flesh of an unicorn is believed to curse you with a black disease that eats you from the inside out.
Easterners are supposed to be buried in starlit ground, which immediately excludes caves, burrows and everywhere where the starlight can't touch the ground. It is that way to supposedly make retrieving their souls easier.

There are few prayers left in The East from the old times - mostly because it is believed that everything can be a prayer if the one who utters it is entirely devoted to their god.

Here are some old prayers, created during the time where everyone still spoke the First Tongue. Below the texts can be found rough translations of what they mean.

Legends

Marek was a small bundle of joy that shined the moment he was born - his mother had fallen pregnant with the demi-god as a gift from her goddess Shreya. During his life, the demi-god quickly gained a reputation for his healing and ability to diminish stress or tension in another. Soon enough he was deemed as “The Peaceful One”, for looking into his glowing emerald eyes would leave one feeling truly happy and relaxed. The white specks flurrying around his body provided warmth to any creature they touched, and provided light in the darkest nights. Although he prefers to live his days alone in the depths of jungle terrains, Marek comes out of hiding when he is needed or called upon. Forever he will be remembered and known as the one who saved a family in The East from a deadly illness by using a mixture of his blood and tears to create an antidote that worked for any living organism.
No one really knows when this being arrived- only that she did and that she did so with malevolence on her teeth and silver on her tongue. Assumed to be born of some kind of dark Khana, the witch of the East, Cyfrin is a witch of the worst kind; she lives to fulfil wishes of ignorant travellers in exchange for payment. This payment can vary and is never, ever simple. The glow of her fur rivals the depths of the ocean that she walked from- fur of the abyss and pretty lights to draw in food, prey. Eyes are her currency and wishes are her wares. You may seek her out in hopes of gaining something new, something strong- but everything comes with a price, are you prepared to pay hers?
