Beliefs were added by the king himself as he assigned loyalist to continue this religion and spread its word. the reason is, he claimed she came to her in a dream to tell them about the truth.
Cosmological Views
According the Humana, Marla the creator was flying in the emptiness of space. So, she taken pieces of her hair for grass and trees, her blood for rivers and seas and her tears for weathers within the land. When she breath within this clump is formed earth. But, it felt empty to her so she taken a piece of her skin forming into an animal and breath life into it, this would become the first animal. However, when creating the humans she made a flaw, making some think she isn't real and that other gods exist. With that she created a monstrous disease threw them, but created Karis to lead the people against them and protect her and the fate, only then will the monster vanish.

Normal priest are not as easy to distinguish from lower monks. They were the same brown robes, however are commonly bald with markings in colours of gold on their heads. They mainly control the monks and spread the word in churches.
Monks are easy to find as they all wear brown robes and have blue markings over their bodies, they basically help take care of the church or spread the word of god across the lands.
