The Nine Crowns

In the years since the collapse of the Eroberan empire, the people left behind distanced themselves from the traditions of their conquerors. Though many people still followed the religion of Uareth, worship of a new pantheon grew in popularity. Though the religion of the Nine Crowns had existed on the fringes of society for centuries, it quickly became the primary religion in the major cities of Aga.

Into the Light

The worship of the Nine Crowns was a quiet rebellion, at first. Though no one knows when or where the religion originated, it had always held favor in rural places. As the Eroberans swept through and conquered Aga they brought their Goddess with them and banned the worship of all other deities. Many people preferred to accept the new religion rather than face the consequences, yet there were those who held on to their gods and worshiped them in secret.
The Eroberans and the church of Uareth spread propaganda to demonize the Nine Crowns and their followers. As the conquerors gained more power and territory, the further the worship of the Nine Crowns was pushed into the shadows. The Crowns became a symbol of rebellion and defiance. As generations passed, the Eroberan story began to sound more like truth than the original.
After the empire fell, the people started to reclaim their lands and their gods. Worship of the Nine Crowns was made legal again, brought out of the shadows and into the light once more. Yet, after so many years, details were forgotten and threads of the Eroberan story changed the tapestry of the Nine Crowns forever.
