That is very interesting. If I read you correctly, the "cornerstones" are sort of like Platonic forms or Aristotelian ideals, in that they are sort of like the essences behind specific laws or regularities of nature, sort of like Fire, Water, etc. To me, it sounds like these celestials are able...

Gotcha. Thanks for the reply. Best of wishes.

Interesting. There is a Prime Mover or One God, so to speak, the Dreamer.

Interesting. Were the cornerstones of reality always there? And the immortals. Are they similar to the Immortals from the Mystara setting?

Interesting. Were the gods the product of human thought? Or, are they just platonic forms that, to humans and other mortals, seem to have some form of agency?

Thank you very much for your reply. As I think about it, I think that one of the best instances I have seen would be something like Glorantha, the setting of the rpg Runequest. In that setting, what the "gods" are is very open to interpretation. For the animists, the "gods" are merely just...

Interesting. You mentioned that there was a time in the past that the gods walked the earth. Do you have an idea of where your gods came from?

Nice. The moons orbit around the sun. I hope it works well.

Kind of like Planegea. Interesting.

Thank you very much. I assume that your cosmology is such that the "moon" is similar to the moons of our own universe?

Thank you for taking the time to reply. I fully understand the notion of each cult making it's own deity at the top. If my reading of Ancient Near Eastern deities is correct, then, for example, when Babylon became the capital of the Neo-Babylonian empire (c. 626 BC–539 BC), then the creation...

Hello everyone. I was thinking about having a character in my campaign world, sort of like a wizard version of Darwin, who was writing a natural science on the origin of divinities. The title of the book would be On the Origin of the Divinities. However, I realized I am still working on a sort...

Got it. Thanks for clearing that up.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. It's just that, in the books, different gods are associated with different domains. For example, in the section under "Peoples and Cultures", the god "Jupiter (Zeus)" has the domains of "Sky, Thunder, Lightning" (p. 7). This was confusing to me, since I...

I am just curious. How exactly does this setting handle Divine magic-users, like Clerics or something? How are the different domains handled?
