| As within all nations, a citizen’s religious leanings are their own to consider. However, Morvalin society does favour certain Gods, with particular leanings towards three who feature most in their day to day life.

| ==== The Reaper ====
| |
| | |
| A life well-lived deserves an ending well-met. Everything will end, of course - that is the way of life, and what gives it meaning. A Morvalin hopes to go to the Reaper’s embrace with a long set of stories, deeds and memories, and it is not unheard of for a person to dress up as the Reaper for the Night of Remembrance festival, mingling among both the living and the dead - a reminder for the living, and a caretaker for the dead.
| |
| | |
| ==== The Muse ====
| |
| | |
| Morvalis is nothing if not home to crafts of all kinds. For a society that concerns itself with creating beautiful things in literally all forms and fashions, a prayer to the Muse is as natural as waking up and thinking ‘What shall I make today?’ It is not unheard of for a person without inspiration to say that the Muse has turned their back on them, or to dedicate some great work to the Muse. | |
| | |
| ==== The Scholar ====
| |
| | |
| Likewise, freed from the drudgery of many chores by their undead workforce, Morvalins have plenty of time for learning. For Morvalis, the Scholar often walks hand-in-hand with the Muse, each one a part of the same beautiful artwork, delicate poem, theatrical performance, perfectly-brewed coffee, and so on. Without learning, one cannot perfect one’s skills.
| |
| | |
| == Ceremonies ==
| |
| | |
| Dedicating something to the Muse or the Scholar is seen as a ceremony in and of itself - at the same time a vital part of any process of creation and an act of religious significance. In this way, there are no formalised rituals within Morvalis for either the Muse or the Scholar - it is down to the creator to decide how much their creation is an offering or has ceremonial value. The Reaper is integral to their funerary rites, and the Night of Remembrance.
