The Twins


We are the Sun and Moon
We are Man and Woman
We are Black and White
We are Light and Darkness
We are Fire and Ice
We are the Land and the Sea
We are Truth and Deception
We are the Sword and the Magic
We are Life and Death
We are the Twins
We are everything
-The Twins, allegedly written on the Tyrabor Rock more than 10.000 years ago.
The Twins

Neutral

The Twins are the beginning and the end. The twin entity covers all aspects of life from life to death. Because of the broadness of the portfolio, the focus of individual churches can sometimes (often) differ a lot.

Because of their place in the history of Gemnos, it is not uncommon for followers of the Twins to see themselves as leaders of communities or advisors to those who lead. "For Gemnos" is a common saying amongst it's clergy.
