Welcome all! If you have come to learn about the different fayths, prophets, and the religious roads in the Oukou Seken you have come to the right place.
What is a Fayth?
Fayth is a very difficult thing to explain. It has many meanings to many different people but in an essence it is all the same thing. Fayth is what guide people and makes them strong. It is what they believe in and what uplifts them and fills the empty hole in their heart. There are many different Fayths and for each faith there is a prophet and a religious road. Although the roads may seem different, some made of stone while others made of brick, they all lead to the same destination, the Garden of Stars.
What is a Prophet?
Prophets are the ones who preach Fayth to others and guide them to the Garden of Stars. There are five prophets:
List of Prophets:
Eden
The oldest and most known of the Prophets. Eden preaches the Principles of Eden which states that people are sinful by nature and can only go to the Garden of Stars by removing sin from their soul. Followers of Eden believe that all souls were born from darkness and the key to bringing them to light lies within prayers and becoming pure of heart. The Principles of Eden states that followers should never indulge in activity that they know is wrong nor encourage others to do so. It also says that a strong believer must always strive to bring about strong believers in others. Eden believes anyone is capable of being used for good or bad and its most important principle is not using others for self-gain. Followers believe that one day Eden will return from wherever he has disappeared to and exposed the lines between good and evil.
Praying to Eden will give followers the power to endure.
Fede
Fede is a prophet that believes in the beauty of nature, life, and the unknown. Followers of Fede seek to find the purpose and beauty in all things life has to offer. Fede's Bellezza is a principle that state one must make sure they stay beautiful in heart, soul, and body at all times in order to make it to the Garden of Stars. To be beautiful in heart means to be loving, pure, and hold no hate or grudges. To be beautiful in soul means to have faith, live carefree, and be open to all walks of life. To be beautiful in body means to respect your private sanctuary in the highest regard of all times.
Praying to Fede gives the follower more luck.
Foi
A popular Prophet among demons and warriors. Foi preaches La Volonté Forte ((The Strong Will)). In short, it states that only the ones strong in body, mind, and soul can go to the Garden of Stars. It tells people to fight but fight with a cause of reason. Grow stronger each day and do what you can to live for tomorrow. Help only those who deserve it and are trustworthy, and never turn you back on those who are in a position to destroy you or something you love.
Praying to Foi will give you physical strength.
Shinpou
Shinpou is a prophet that believes in breaking the boundaries between the material world and the spiritual world. Followers of Shinpou's Bourei believe that one must be in tune with the spiritual world if they ever want to past to the Garden of Stars. The spiritual world consist of the natural energy from nature and the spiritual energy of spirits. They believe that the Garden of Stars is the point in which theses two worlds combine which means one must be in synch with both worlds in order to enter.
Praying to Shinpou will increase one's magic capabilities.
Credo
Credo is one of the least known of the Prophets. He preaches that for a being to go to the Garden of Stars, that being must make himself as divine as possible so that he or she earns the right to go to the Garden of Stars by following Credo's Lección. Credo frowns upon unnecessary violence, and preaches that one must cause as little bloodshed as they can. Also if blood is spilled, the murder must give the victim a proper burial. Credo also states that when the time comes, and one's soul is ready to venture to the Garden of Stars, that you should sever all bonds to your loved ones, as they may cloud your mind as you venture to the Garden. One travels to the Garden to live a new life, not to sulk and wish for their old families, as they are long gone. Credo's followers live lifes that are short, but are prosperus and filled with love.
Prayers to Credo give the follower enhanced speed so one may flee from battle instead of engage in it.

How does one pray or advance in one's Fayth?
This goes into the theory of there being 8 chakra points that align on one's spine and the way to reach full enlightenment is by getting your chakra energy level to break through the barriers of each point. This is achieved through meditation and gaining meditation points. Meditation points are gained through self venture. ((making post about traveling to your inner world and doing things that relate to your Fayth.))
Meditation points ((Note: You don't have to do all at one time and the process takes a long time. Dedication is much needed to accomplish the crown. Each word counts as a point. This splits up the suggested ways of achieving the points.))
