History
Ode Kazue was born in 903 under the Tian Dynasty, his family practiced the Minjian Faith and Ode was very committed to it. Eventually, he joined the Minjian Temple studying to be the brightness of his local sanctum. After a theological debate with his elders, he felt dissatisfied with the Mijian Faith and retreated into the nearby mountains to find peace. During his journey, he received a vision from Saikoishi who revealed to him lessons of the way of existing. Kazue wrote these lesions as the Book of Raibu before distributing it to locals. Eventually, a temple was built on the spot known as the Temple of High Enlightenment. Before he died in 985, Ode Kazue created a system of organization for the quickly growing religion, although he did not appoint a successor. Following his death, his son Taguchi Kazue took control and declared him Pyhuawan or "highest one" In response a faction loyal to Nagao Tetsuya stole the original Book of Raibu and left the region setting up a new temple in western Lao Sansong believing the book was the source of divine power.
Taguchi Kazue in response burned a copy of the Book of Rabu to prove, that it was the idea, not the book itself. According to Tetsuyaists, it was at this point that Taguchi Kazue was cursed, and a massive flood that destroyed the city of Hiranonamachi in 1012 was the wrath of angry water spirits.

Many temples were also constructed during the period when the Empire controlled Misumi. After the Empire was defeated many of these temples were destroyed, leading to a series of crusades through the 1700s to re-take these temples.
