| The Elefyr, beings who reside within [[planes:aurius:arethayn:start|Arethayn]] and facilitate a certain purity to the [[races:elves:arethara:start|Arethara]] by way of example, are thought to be the [[:cephareth|original ancestors]] of both flesh and spirit reincarnated. They are worshipped by the Arethara as the pinnacle of all contemporary [[:aurya|Auryi beings]], who yet managed to preserve all of the magic and virtue of the [[library:premodern:altori_era|Altori Era]] and thus, preserve the purity and their bloodlines' power. Of the Elefyr, there are seven, and they each embody some aspect of Arethari life in the elven homeland.\\ | The Elefyr, beings who reside within [[planes:aurius:arethayn:start|Arethayn]] and facilitate a certain purity to the [[races:elves:arethara:start|Arethara]] by way of example, are thought to be the [[pantheons:class:cephareth|original ancestors]] of both flesh and spirit reincarnated.

| Each of the Elefyr are regarded as the patrons of their particular focus, and with this being seen in [[pantheons:deities:evaritha|Evaritha's]] capacity for a great magic as a divine sorceress and she who manipulates the elements well. Evaritha is a patron of the magic which manipulates the elements, regarded as a powerful being who may bend the foundation and bring about weather patterns which otherwise might not exist. She is thus thought to have provided the blessing of fertility to [[planes:aurius:start|Aurius]], where she notably permitted the intermixing of elements and essential being throughout Arethayn such that they may blend. The divine sorceress, however, is only capable of manipulating the elements which have already incarnated, rather than freshly creating new elements and ideas.\\ | Each of the Elefyr are regarded as the patrons of their particular focus, and with this being seen in [[pantheons:deities:evaritha|Evaritha's]] capacity for a great magic as a divine sorceress and she who manipulates the elements well.

| Araray himself has a counselor in the form of the paladin called [[pantheons:deities:samariel|Samariel]], and it is from him that battle tactics originate from. The paladin god makes use of sorcery and magic as well as the blade and armor, and from his magic and blade comes a certain destruction in his enemies. Samariel advises the patriarch in strategy for encroaching enemies, especially those seen in the [[pantheons:class:novya|Novya]], as it is from Samariel that they are ignited with a golden light and banished back to [[:exitius|the void]]. The deity thus inspired the foundational battle magic that would become commonplace among the Arethara who engaged in that behavior, thereby allowing its further development as a discipline.\\ | Araray himself has a counselor in the form of the paladin called [[pantheons:deities:samariel|Samariel]], and it is from him that battle tactics originate from.

| [[pantheons:deities:allidias|Allidias]] is another goddess of the Elefyr, and she is thought to encapsulate the beauty of the original Cephareth into a modern form. As she is related to the water spirits through her possession of beauty, the goddess is also associated with the tempestuous desire of the undulant waters as desire flows from her sexual organs, thereby being reminiscent of the [[races:elves:undara|Undari people]]. Allidias is thus a goddess of elven mating, providing the philosophy of freedom of love with reproduction that occurs throughout the Arethara, where it may be perceived that she champions sexual reproduction by way of promoting desire.\\ | [[pantheons:deities:allidias|Allidias]] is another goddess of the Elefyr, and she is thought to encapsulate the beauty and mercy of the original Cephareth into a modern form. As she is a being of compassion and beauty, she is also thought to encapsulate within herself a portion of the traits of the water that has since been perfected through an assimilation of variegated traits and ancestries into her essential being. Furthermore, the goddess is regarded as the patron of love and fertility, and it is she who presides over the rituals and practices of elven mating, thereby providing the philosophy of the freedom of love is it originates in both the heart and the sexual organs. Accordingly, it may be perceived that she necessarily propagates the practice of forming elven unions by way of promoting their desires and allowing their love to be ritualistically enshrined and acknowledged by Arethayni law.\\ |

| [[pantheons:deities:caluriel|Caluriel]], a god of the Elefyr who first sought to possess a shape after the Cephareth had become wholly physical beings, was the one who laid the grounds of trapping the divine light within themself such that an ideal shape could be revealed and further exemplified. The deity enabled other elven ancestors to come into themselves in physicality, thereby allowing them a quintessential format to exist as. Accordingly, Araray, being one of the original Cephareth himself, is thought to inhabit within forms that are ever shifting, though this notably grants him an innate understanding of magic and mana that a physical being might never be able to achieve. Nonetheless, Araray chooses to be incarnated in shapes that are reminiscent of Caluriel's initial shape, furthermore exemplifying Caluriel's given claim to a perceived apotheosis.\\ | [[pantheons:deities:caluriel|Caluriel]], a god of the Elefyr who first sought to possess a shape after the Cephareth had become wholly physical beings, was the one who laid the grounds of trapping the divine light within themself such that an ideal shape could be revealed and further exemplified.

| [[pantheons:deities:aenyxos|Aenyxos]], the seventh and final god of the Elefyr, is a scribe who stands at the precipice between life and death, recording the deaths of the Arethara and providing a place for them to rest within the physical world. It is thought that he presides over the cycles of reincarnation such that knowledge is passed down and given by the ancestors to their proper descendants, so that an ancestor spirit may once again know the physical form of a body in their descendant. Thus, Aenyxos is a god of reincarnation, recording all instances of soul so that none of it may be lost to the later descendants. | [[pantheons:deities:aenyxos|Aenyxos]], the seventh and final god of the Elefyr, is a scribe who stands at the precipice between life and death, recording the deaths of the Arethara and providing a place for them to rest within the physical world.
