The religions of man have long struggled with the identities of the powers they once called the Princes of Erenes, but now call the Pretenders.
They do not appear in history before the 40th Century as elves reckon time, though they were considered by some sages to be Agathinon, at first. Unlike those ancient beings, however, they did not want to be left alone.
They continued as temporal rulers for centuries among the kingdoms of men. Eventually, however, they were recalled in an act called the Divine Rescission. Thereafter, the Grand Temple of Heaven was formed to give them worship many believed they were due.
At the end of the God War the one-time Princes of Erenes were reduced by the Church of Westrun to the so-called Pretender gods; and their cults were eventually altogether banned.
The Decadon was this:
Heimos - The pretender god of the heavens, of storms, magic and fury.
Heinil - The pretender god of the air; patron deity of ancient Peakshadow.
Heiniko - The pretender god of the Sea, male fertility, and knowledge, brother deity of Utunos
Inossa - The pretender goddess of sexual love, female fertility and warfare; matron deity of ancient Rath.
Kinurea - The pretender goddess of the earth; matron deity of Talir.
Noilos - The pretender god of the moon; one of the patron deities of Menea.
Ningula - The pretender goddess of darkness; wife of Noilos; mother of Bal, Du, and Ren.
Ninlee - A pretender air goddess and wife of Einil; one of the matron deities of Peakshadow; she was believed to reside in the same temple as Enlil.
Ninurtos - The pretender god of war and agriculture, one of the patron deities of Menea.
Utunos - The pretender god of the sun, brother of deity of Einiko.
