Faith in the Great Forest is very intricate. The Ones Above rule over all there is, controlling every aspect of the place the cats call their home. Some call them saviors, others call them dictators. However, most of the clan cats have some belief in the deities, and often pray to them. Each clan has a unique way of showing their faith, and their own traditions. Hyacinthclan Traditions Hyacinthclan is comprised of the cats closest to the stars above. Often considered lofty and aloof, the clan often considers others as less worthy than them. Hyacinthclan interprets signs from the sky, and even has a specific role dedicated specifically to deciphering them. Hyacinth cats have a tradition of sacrificing prey to the Guardian of Night, Galemoon. Alderclan Traditions Alderclan is most connected to the earth, and the plants that lurk below. These cats are sturdy as trees, and have the best night vision out of any clan cat. Some say their sight was a gift from the guardian of greenleaf, Breeze. Some say you can even hear her singing in the trees on particularly sunny days. Heatherclan Traditions Heatherclan finds their faith in both death, and life. They honor every change in a cat’s name with a joyful celebration. Even a cat’s passing is received with a party, and plenty of freshkill. Heatherclan cats may seem morbid, but in reality, they simply understand that life is short, why not have a good time? One of the major questions of the Twoleg world… When you die, where do you go? Well, these cats have a common belief. The World Above, or The World Below. In The World Above, Ancestors dwell in relative harmony… Guiding their descendants below them. Most deities dwell in The World Above, and because of this, the Ancestors are honored immensely, for they are believed to have gained knowledge from the Deities themselves. Indeed, The World Above is a paradise for the deceased, an eternally starry hunting ground. The World Below, however, is where the worst of the clancats go. It’s where demons dwell… The Ancestors who grew corrupt live there, forever trying to dig their claws into the living world… Now, when your cat dies in the Roleplay, staff, and yourself, decide where the feline goes. However, Above and Below are not the only answers. Between, is a realm where ghostly spirits wander the earth... Eternally. Wherever a cat ends up, that is not the end of their story. They may continue on from beyond the grave, interacting with the dead… Or more…
