Dogma:
Long ago, Arefel was worshiped by many across the land that are now Vaegog and Bal’Landorin. She was the embodiment of the changing of ideas, new constructs, and technological advancements. New methods
of farming, construction, and smithing all were honored as inspiration from her divine hand. While many saw the work of her worshipers as frivolous or borderline crazy, the end results were on occasion nigh on
miraculous.

Clergy and Temples:
Arefel’s high temple, The Manufactorum, formerly stood in the midst of Alucian, now Vaegog. In the great war that formed Nolice and eventually Vaegog, it was destroyed. Many of her clerics and priests were put to the sword shortly after the war as Nolice consolidated power and started the monotheistic cleansing in Deimos’ favor. A host of her worshipers escaped into the lands that became Bal’Landorin and were instrumental in enhancing the capabilities of Hollow Mount. Her worship fell out of practice as there was a missing generation of preachers. In time there were few who even remembered her, let alone gave her their devotion. She is now an almost forgotten deity.
