Telus (Tell-us)

Who is the Architect who created light and darkness?
Who caused the dawn, the midday and the night, which by the rotation of the earth remind the wise of their duty?
Who else but Thee, O King of Light, O Resplendent Lord!

Manifestations and Alternative Titles:
The Resplendent Lord
One of Telus's many titles, but worship of him under this title is ubiquitious enough to be considered by some to be of a seperate sect. The Resplendent Lord is a figure of righteousness whose pursuit of truth cannot be turned away nor restrained. Mercy, falsehoods, and excuses all lie in darkness, and He cares little for what hides in the shadow. Often associated with the law, instruments of justice, and at times the divine rights of a ruler.

Riemel
Riemel is a dwarven divine figure, predating the rise of men as a civilized race. She is associated with fire and artifice more than knowledge and light. Some postulate the worship of Telus among men descended from tales of Riemel told by dwarven migrants and refugees, and indeed many Westwythian theologists readily conflate the two entities. Riemel is still widely worshipped among the dwarves, and has also disseminated to some gnomes of Sijmen Sur since their assimilation with dwarven refugees,
