Nordic Pantheon - AllisonNil/Elder-Kings-2-Wiki GitHub Wiki

Over the years, the Nords of Skyrim have accepted the worship of eight main deities, though their name and rank would not perfectly reflect the Imperial influence over their beliefs. A striking exemple is the place of Akatosh, known in the Nordic Pantheon as Alduin. The Dragon Alduin symbolises the end of times, and as such every Nord priest includes a short prayer to keep the Dragon-God asleep for as long as possible.
