Lugia

Lugia is the deity worshipped in the Kingdom of Aturia. It is principally believed to be the creator of the moon and now also serves as the guardian of the Kingdom of Aturia, providing the desert kingdom with the beloved Lugia's Gift, a body of water that nurtures all of life in the region.

Religious fervor to Lugia is ingrained in daily ritual, as citizens typically make daily trips to local shrines or temples to praise Lugia and her majesty. More zealous citizens will make pilgrimages to either the Tower of Lugia or the Temple of the Guardian to worship the Goddess, though this is not required and traditions are more personal or family orientated. Religious sites are typically led by local priests or priestess, which turn to regional officials that serve in the religious council of the state religion. This state religion, better know as the Church of Lugia, is led by the Voice of Lugia, an elected position by the religious council that traditionally advises the Emperor of Aturia.

Currently, it is believed that Lugia resides in the Dark (or Whirl) Island to the south where she slumbers and is not to be disturbed.
