Eirp Pamorp: Righteous Flow

This religion was discovered in the ruins of Irewa and is believed to be separate from the Seven Truths. However, this sect shares elements with modern Seven Truths faiths of the same region, leading to the possibility that Eirp Pamorp holds some clues that could be useful to the mystery of the Seven Truths. Much of the faith's teachings have been lost under tons of volcanic ash; archaeologists are still trying to piece it together.

Cosmological Views

The theming of the religious symbolism is apocalyptic but surprisingly cheerful. The Irewans seemingly didn't demand the volcanic eruption, but they still welcomed it readily. Imagery sees people ascending through dark clouds into paradise, where they are bathed in light. This has been interpreted as the pyroclastic flow of the volcanos of Irewa sending the people into the afterlife, the volcano being some form of divine providence.

Horns being blown are consistent imagery, though whether they call to prepare for escape or ascension is unclear. Regardless, they show a distinct difference for those who did prepare when the horn is blown and those who did not. Oddly enough, those who did prepare are more commonly seen bathed in light. There are a couple schools of thought that explain this. One claims that it is an air of futility, that one cannot escape fate no matter how much one prepares. This might explain the alarmingly jovial attitude towards apocalypse. The other claims that one must be ready for death, whenever death might come.

Just as commonplace in the artwork is a man amidst the other people, one who lives in a house above the clouds. He is often seen blowing the aforementioned horn, and he points to evidence of the Ovt'koi, the Yet Unknown.
