Sect of Edar
Worship
The worshippers of Edar are as stoic as the earth they walk upon. Worship of Edar is done through repetition in the form of mantras and gestures.
Prayers to Edar
The prayers used by the sect of Edar drone through the tunnels and from the great singing towers. Followers of Edar meditate with mantras as they work, depending on the strength and fortitude Edar grants them each day. Some are used in daily worship, others only for special ceremonies. A dedicated worshipper would know them by heart and would recite them frequently.
What is especially notable compared to the other major sects, is that the prayers descend wholly from the original language of the Founders, Darastric. Unfortunately, this has led to the loss of their original meaning. Religious scholars still fervently debate the true meaning of every syllable.
Er Edar
ER EDAR UR HAR ER URUS HAR
It is generally agreed upon that this mantra praises Edar for his stability and prays for that same stability.
Vor Vil Veri Vur
VOR VIL VERI VUR
The true meaning of this mantra is heavily debated, but two major interpretations have emerged: It is a prayer of focus, or it is a prayer of patience
Bark Voras
BARK VORAS SAVUM URUS,
BARK EDAR ER HAR,
ER HAR VORAS RIGAS
This mantra has stumped scholars as it seems to be a mantra-fied version of an old prayer more similar to those of the other sects.
