Solas of Awen
Beliefs
The Solas of Awen is an ancient group whose beliefs date back to the pre-Christian era. The Solas of Awen worships Awen, a goddess of balance. Balance of soul, body and the land are to be achieved to reach Speir, or peace.
Magic is considered important, and many followers of Awen are witches.
The Solas of Awen believes animals to be just as "human" as us, so consumption of meat is banned, and killing a human to defend an animal is allowed, as is the murder of unbelievers.
Balance
Balance of mind is to be reached through broadening the mind using Salvia Divinorum, or Diviner's Sage. Diviner's Sage is said to open one's mind to Awen, and thus to see her in her true glory. Balance of mind is achieved through constant fornication of any kind. Balance of land is achieved by caring for the earth and by maintaining the other balances.
Criminalization
The Solas of Awen is considered a criminal group due to drug trafficking, smuggling of illegal animals, prostitution, sex trafficking and murder of non-believers.
