Behind the Lore
This is a place for those who are interested to further explore some of the scriptures, history, and reasoning behind many of the game's details. It is a work in progress, not exhaustive, and is given secondary attention under game development. However, it is something many people find interesting and have requested.
I am not dogmatic about most of these topics and love to engage in respectful discussion about them. I do not expect players to agree with all of the things detailed here, but they will lead to an increased understanding of the game's lore.
