History
Founding
The earliest recorded worship of Parathism originates out of 2nd century Dimelivon. At that time, Parathism did not exist as it does now. It started as isolated communities worshiping singular animistic gods, the most popular ones being Tychia, god of good fortune, and Geiana, goddess of birth. Over time these gods spread across the continent. New gods were created, gained prominence, and fell out of favor. In the year 219, established religious figures of Dimelivion began coalescing the disparate pantheons into a singular religion known today as Parathism. This kickstarted what believers of Parathism refer to as The Age of Dialogue.
