Aguaraism

This religion first started in the Western Kingdom from sailors who claim to have experienced holy revelations while on voyages. The main beliefs of the religion include the belief that eventually the entire planet will be submerged by the god known as Aguara and that only the faithful and holy will survive, as well as the belief that the souls of the wicked will be drowned while the righteous will be reincarnated until the day the world floods and they will be ultimately saved. The religion rejects the idea of worldly wealth and encourages the forgoing of worldly corruptions such as greed and selfishness and encourages humility and honor, with these beliefs serving to give the impoverished peasantry of the West a sense of hope and purpose in a world where they have little.   The religion states that a messenger of Aguara exists and it's soul reincarnates when it dies, the religion has spread widely with no real structure and effectively anyone willing to give up worldly wealth allowed to be priests. Though in the West where this religion originates it is widely looked down upon by the aristocracy and mocked as nothing more than peasant superstition.
