Sanguine Mysteries - AllisonNil/Elder-Kings-2-Wiki GitHub Wiki
A faith born of lack and apathy made yearning for comfort, the Sanguine Mysteries splinter the Prince of Revelry into three aspects: of the Birth, of the Feast, and of the Wild. The adherents separate into groups devoted to a single aspect and practice in total secrecy from everyone else in special isolated places called Sanguinariums. Breaking the oath of mystery is a serious taboo, and infringing on it may turn one into an outcast, no longer welcomed among the Acolytes.
Worship is preformed in act (even unconscious) rather than prayer; the Acolytes honour Sanguine with frequent feasts, generous gestures, and overall compassionate hedonism. Being a mystery cult, the Mysteries seldom leak int one's daily life outside the bleached temple walls in any official capacity, largely considered a very personal matter.
