The religious systems of the Five Empires are based on two ‘alignments’ (Stability and Change), each represented in the Engsvanyáli pantheon by five major ‘Gods’ (Stability: the Tlomitlányal; Change: the Tlokiriqáluyal) and five ‘Cohorts’ (the Hlimékluyal).

These deities are really vastly poweful interdimensional beings, though ‘gods’ to the limited being that is man. For a discussion of these beings and the Scrolls of Pavár, see the relevant History entry. The most comprehensive source of material about Tsolyáni religion and ritual is Mitlanyál.
