=====Solara, the Goddess of the Sun=====
Solara, the feminine personification of the sun and the light above, is considered by the [[races:humans:ethrekasan:ethetia:start|Ethetia]] and their descendants as the mother of the cosmos, the origin of all life as its source. It is said by the legends of these Ethetia that she bore the mortal plane as well as the stars and their mortal kind, all of the energies present originating from her as she is considered the source of all light. Being the source of all of flawed creation, she is oftentimes seen as a goddess whose life force was unmatched as she brought into existence all of mortality and this aforementioned creation as a goddess of the feminine acts of childbirth, possessing the traits of both a youthful maiden and a fertile, bountiful mother. As the mother of all of the world, she is regarded as the bringer and giver of mortal law, any sins committed against her being punished through her great power and wisdom.\\

Specifically, to the Ethetia, she was known as their creator goddess, the goddess who imparted her energies onto the mortal plane to give them their lives and vitality as her children. It is her life force that runs through the veins of every Ethetia, these peoples having been born from Solara’s energy and vitality. She is also considered the goddess of light, the light of the sun shining upon the Ethetian people and gracing them with a bountiful and blessed life. As the mother of their pantheon, and especially the matriarchal authority of [[:the_elohad|the Elohad]], she is considered the true divinity from which all of creation came to be, having chosen the Ethetia and the Elohad as her heirs and kissing them by the graceful light of the sun.\\

The [[races:humans:kataletia|Kataletia]] revere her in the form of their veneration of the sun, her status as being the divine mother of all of the deities that descended from the sun in ancient times being respected and acknowledged by all. Direct worship of her, however, has largely become rare and uncommon, their creation occurring so long ago so as to only find evidence of her existence in the sun above. However, in prayers condoned by religious officials of the various cities, Solara’s name is mentioned often and revered, these prayers remaining from those times where Solara was worshipped and venerated.\\
\\
The [[races:humans:eretia|Eretia]] of southern [[planes:aurius:ethrekas:start|Ethrekas]] believe Solara to be a goddess of the continuously fading light, the twilight of the world coming to fruition as the end draws near and Solara’s grip on the world loses hold. As this is the case, the Eretia typically believe that the conjoining darkness that resides in the soul has been awakened in all beings as a result of their flawed creation, prompting them to instead rely on those previously believed devils who have become one with the ancient darkness.\\
\\
To the few of the [[races:humans:aevayans|Aevayans]] who have been exposed to the theologies of those belonging to the southern lands, counting among the Kataletia and Eretia, Solara is regarded as merely a feminine emanation of [[pantheons:deities:the_light_disambiguation:aion_teleos|Aion Teleos]], the static and incomprehensible force of light, Solara having mated with the darkness in an act of feminine desire and lust to create and thus, given birth to all of the worlds.
