"I have not really considered our rituals acts of religion, but more a meditative way to enhance our awareness of the world by weakening the internal barriers between ourselves and our surroundings. It is teorized that by weakening those mental barriers we will be able to interact swifter and more effectively with the rest of the world, particularly when it comes to combat. Our philosophy centers on ourselves as parts of the world, but doesn't take divine beings into more than a very general account. We do not dwell on such questions as an afterlife, divine absolutes and active worship, though some chapters of our organization have sadly blurred the issues somewhat. The gods divide the world that we try to see holistically." ooc: Rhialto, this is all obviously pulled out of the air but since I haven't found any information about Jannissary philosophy I figured it wouldn't do any harm making it up myself. If it clashes with your vision I'll gladly change it.</blockquote>
