“Everything ends. Mortality is our grace and our redemption.”
The Inevitable is lord over the Realms of the Dead. Most Aventurians fear him more than they love him, and many of his temples are filled with dignified silence. Boron is the god of death and mortality, but he also represents sleep and the grace of oblivion. Many of his Blessed Ones are well-versed oneiromancers and healers of the soul, or else serve as silent guardians at Boron yards (cemeteries; also known as Boron’s Acres) and deliver a final blessing for the deceased. They are often regarded as sinister and unapproachable in their black robes, and many of them shave their heads out of humility, or take a vow of silence.
The Church of Boron is split into two sects. The head of the Punin rite is called Raven, after the holy animal of Boron, and leads the main temple in Punin. In the Al’Anfan rite, Boron is worshiped as supreme god even above Praios, which leads to conflicts with the other churches of the Twelvegods. In the south, one gives oneself to the divine intoxication of oblivion, and suicide is regarded as the highest form of sacrifice to the silent god. Al’Anfa hosts the main temple of this sect, which is under the leadership of a Patriarch.
