Church of the Sovereign

The veneration of The Sovereign as a deity is recognized as the official regional religion within Maret, Laguerre, and Kota. The church maintains a majority presence within the other families as well, though it is not recognized officially as a political entity.

Temples dedicated to the Sovereign are grand buildings built like semi-circular, indoor amphitheaters. Even temples built in relatively small villages and towns tend to dominate the architecture of the settlement.
