[QUOTE="Anonym, post: 9749606, member: 31951"] Simply put, it's a post-apocalyptic world, which could be a traditional fantasy world or a world that just looks like a fantasy world but is actually an extremely futuristic high-tech world (people mistake the high-tech for magic, even though they are not actually magic). In the myths and religious beliefs of the local people, heaven lies underground, and hell is in the sky. tThey know that deep underground lies a world of immense beauty, perhaps a paradise forbidden to mortals on the surface, or perhaps the realm of the gods.only the chosen can reach it, or only after death (at least that's what their religion claims). for them, hell lies in the sky——strictly speaking,the deep space. they understand the space better than ancient Earthlings (perhaps they still have spaceships), and to them, space is not just a cold, suffocating void where humans can barely survive at best, but also a source of countless dangers——terrifying meteorites that could destroy cities; space pirates that could descend from the sky without warning to plunder; and all sorts of terrifying alien invaders that could descend and unleash devastating war and woe on the world. in short, they have no favorable impression of space. at the same time, their underground world is more hospitable than the surface, offering a better living environment and greater protection from the dangers of the sky. In their various myth, the gods did not descend from the sky, but rose from the depths of the earth————(I need a specific word, the opposite of ADVENT. So my question is, in such a world, what would their religion and myth be like? [/QUOTE]
