The big Something (North Legonian Monotheism)
From Legonia
At beginning there was an endless nothing, and it was bored, so a big something was created, and it creates the world. In all kingdoms of the north this one and only god is praised in any form. It's the most known religion. The Northern Kingdom is easy in religion. The people believes in a basic energy, which created rules of physics and the lifeforms of Legonia. But it doesn’t act directly. So, the living cultures and races have their own responsibility to deal with the world and to respect its nature. A real living church doesn’t exist here, but after the death, people become part of the big something again. At least, some ceremonies are hold every year praising these thoughts. Other races and kingdoms have different kinds of believe. All followers of this monotheism together believe, that they will travel back to the big something after death, where endless calm and peace awaits.
