Goyamoi

The Goyamoi are a slender, tawny or fair-skinned human peoples with brown hair that ranged from a light, almost-blond hue to a darker color that could be mistaken for black. Goyamoi are generally taller than other humans, though not in all instances, and often have green or brown eyes. Those living north and west of the Inner Sea tended to resemble the lighter-skinned (other humans) while those who inhabited the lands south of the body of water had darker skin.   There are two types: the written, literary mythology in traditional histories, mostly about the founding monarchs of various historical kingdoms, and the much larger and more diverse oral mythology, mostly narratives sung by shamans or priestesses in rituals invoking the gods and which are still considered sacred today. These are recited in ritual contexts both to please the gods and to entertain the human worshippers. As oral literature, the shamanic narrative is regularly revised with each performance, although a certain degree of consistency is required.
