In case anyone's wondering, I'm working on some 3D witchery -- rather, learning how to use the software (or is it more suited to the times to say "app?"). I soon hope to be able to share the results.
In the coming months, you can expect to see the Grand Temple of Yethlyreom in all it's glory. This will put the palace to shame. The palace was a primarily linear affair, while the temple is all about curves and domes. Those familiar with the palace might have taken note of the mosaic of Thasaidon (or one of his personas). There will be an expansion on this theme, a rather dramatic one.
Though there were many gods in the Yethlyri pantheon, they only celebrated the ones they did not fear - and whom they hoped would deliver them from the rest. These were
- Thasaidon, a fiend yes, likely to make any deal for your soul, but also the God of Magic and Death.
-
Mordiggian, The Charnel God, Eater of the Dead
- Alila, Goddess of Perdition and Iniquity; the Goddess of Sin and Treachery
- Ililot, Goddess of Love and Hate; usually appears as a lovely young woman, but don't piss her off, as she avenges the wronged lover.
- Thamagorgos, God of the Outer Void.
As a side note, my reading of the pronunciation here is that <I> alone makes the "ee" sound, but when following <a> gives "ay." <T> appears to be silent unless accompanied with an <h>. Hence, Thah-SAY-duhn, Mohr-DEEG-ee-un, Ah-LEE-la, EE-lee-loh, and Thah-mah-GOHR-gohs.
If you've studied Tolkien, you might be aware that history can affect language, and in fact in some ways be derived from it. I have no idea what this might mean for Yethlyreom as yet, but thinking about it is more fun than preparing my taxes.
