Indelēas

Indelēas is the god of time and logic in the Pantheon. He is also known as the Elder god, Father of the gods, and variations of these. Indelēas is the one who created the world according to most scholars. He also created what we call history, by inventing time and allowing change to happen in a static world. His representation is usually one of a humanoid person standing, wearing robes and a hood which covers his face. Certain devotees believe that Indelēas cannot be physically represented as he is so above our level of understanding.

Creation of the world
It is accepted by most people that Indelēas is the one who created the physical world we live in. However, certain intellectuals maintain that he merely created the passing of things; time. And that the physical world was created by another being, which gave up on it´s immortality to become the land itself, before the gods even existed. This point of view is obviously refuted by the grand majority of the public, as it is thought to be blasphemous to indicate that something existed before the gods.

Places of worship
All cities within the province of Skáney have shrines dedicated to his glory, and his pedestals of prayer are the ones that generally contain the most amounts of offerings, because of his status as the 'superior' god. The Temple of the Pantheon, inside Hearthspire, contains a dedicated space to Indelēas, along with spaces for all the other gods and goddesses of the Pantheon.

It is speculated by some historians that there is a unique temple in the island of Sumor dedicated entirely to Indelēas, constructed many years ago by a secret cult. There has not been any evidence of this fact, even though it is not uncommon to find small cults that worship the Pantheonic gods differently.

Rituals
There are no specific rituals regarding his worship. Because of this, families impose their own manner of presenting their prayer and pass this knowledge down from generation to generation. The amount of variation between rituals is enormous, almost too big to catalog. But among the most common are: silent prayer, meditation and singing. Certain extremists hold more extraordinary ceremonies, such as sacrifices of all kinds of living beings, from animals to children and virgins.
