Overview of the Nine Icons

It is not clear exactly where the Icons come from; this knowledge was lost during the exile from Al-Ardha.
The Zenithians can shed no light on the matter, but this is of no consequence to the faithful – the fact that the Icons exist is enough.
The Icons link everyday life with spirituality in many ways. The figurines on the altars of people’s homes, the talismans on dashboards and bridges, the temples and chapels along the trade routes, in the villages, and on the space stations – all are links between the individual and eternity. The nine Icons are worshipped differently depending on profession, faction and personal beliefs. In some places they are even praised under different names but, according to the Church of Icons, they are still the same Icons.
