Some [[races:humans:iluayans:covens of deonasta|enigmatic occultists of the eastern coast of Caskaris]] worship beings which they refer to as the [[pantheons:class:deonyths|Deonyths]], who are thought to be beings who inhabit within the veil, and who act within the shadows though possessing a great power of magic themselves. The Deonyths, who make use of the pure darkness of Umbra such that they remained shadowy and unknown to mortal eyes, are thought to have revealed themselves to these spiritually sensitive occultists as a result of their descent from the druidic peoples, and so that they might extend their influence across Caskaris through the actions of their worshippers, thereby allowing them some control over the mortal plane. The worship of Umbra himself, however, is an undertone to the worship of these beings of the Deonyth, who strive for nothing but to be worshipped and a penance made to them, thus allowing the occultists’ corruption through a piety to their gods. Thus, Umbra is acknowledged as the primordial being from which the Deonyths were allowed to exist, his power only being relevant in the cases which had resurfaced in the Deonyths.\\ | Some [[races:humans:iluayans:covens of deonasta|enigmatic occultists of the eastern coast of Caskaris]] worship beings which they refer to as the [[pantheons:class:deonyths|Deonyths]], who are thought to be beings who inhabit within the veil, and who act within the shadows though possessing a great power of magic themselves.

The Iluayans who swear fealty to the [[:ayoskova|Ayoskovic potentate]] who know of Umbra believe the entity to be a force whose presence and intent is removed from the mortal plane, residing however within the void which their worshipped deity protects them from. Though Umbra is not culturally recognized by the masses of individuals who belong to the Ayoskovic kingdom, the being is named, albeit in an archaic manner, in their interring of the dead so that he might grant them safe passage through the tribulations of the worlds of death and then, allow them to be reborn within the same family. Accordingly, names are inherited from deceased individuals from both the mother and father’s direct ancestors with the intent that they had returned to the mortal world in the form of a child as they had been durable enough to survive the powers of Umbra by the force’s grace. | The Iluayans who swear fealty to the [[planes:aurius:caskaris:countries:ayoskova|Ayoskovic potentate]] who know of Umbra believe the entity to be a force whose presence and intent is removed from the mortal plane, residing however within the void which their worshipped deity protects them from.
