Spread of Kiivenara

Kiivenara is a kavkem mythology best referred to as Dance of Suns, even though its literal translation would be grace of the sun - a portmanteauing of the kavkem words kiivar and evenar. One might consider it a fairly straight-forward application of the classical pantheon and its associated stories, Taaravahr. It simply adds to the existing structure, altering very little.

It can be encountered in Lower Cetaros, where it dominates its entire territorial stretch.

Cosmology

Kiivenara followers assume that Daskuvar returns to Nekenalos periodically or in response to certain events, and life is possible only between those events. (This bears passing semblance to Aztec mythology on Earth, though unlike Aztec mythology, Daskuvar will keep going away, it isn't assumed to trade places with Mekiva - except maybe in personal flavours of Kiivenara.)

Generally speaking, believers of Kiivenara believe that the position of planets in the sky tell them a lot about current and near future events. They don't believe they can predict far future events with the help of this scrying, though, as they believe the world is usually still predominantly guided by local effects. While they're usually not familiar with chaos theory, you could easily tell them about that concept and they'd respond “oh yeah, that's totally how the world is, and why we can't predict it, that's an elegant way of putting it!”.

Haref was a loose believer in Kiivenara.
