Karlk

God of Rain, The Ever Giving, The Mediatior, The Peaceful Titan

It is from Karlk that every river springs, it is his live-giving liquids that nurture life in even the harshest places, for wherever the river flows, does life follow. From his head is the gate that all life is given, for he is a God of tremendous power, yet also humble power, he understands better than any that violence will never be a final solution, it is always the short path. It was Karlk who first spoke of peace between the Celestial and the Primordials, and he was instrumental in ending the conflict, for this many view him as the mediator, he who breaks hostility, though some would view it as weakness and betrayal.  

Aspects

 

The Mediator

Karlk despises violence it brings only endings and never new beginnings, to him all conflict could be resolved by discussion and understanding, by respect. He was the first who brokered out talks of peace between the Primordials and the Celestial, Therefor does he urge mortals and especially his followers to help others reach an understanding.   Though one should not think this weakness, Karlk like the river monsoon is quick to swallow those who are unwilling to even entertain the notion of resolution without comprising for one cannot be unyielding when peace is at stake, but likewise should one not bow to aggressors, peace is a fragile thing, protect and nurture it.  

The Life-Giver

Karlk is also known as the Life-giver, for the obvious reason that it is from his endless sorrow and tears that the rivers spring forth in the world, it is his boundless compassion that feeds thousands of mortals and allows them steady water and crops. And his compassion can reach even the Harshest of place. He encourages all his followers to be compassionate and generous to all, to share in their success and bounties that the world's suffering may be amended if just a little.  

Worship

Worship Karlk not by giving to him, but by giving to those in need, though he appreciates prayers of gratitude, true devotion is shown through acts of generosity and compassion to those around you.
