List of Ilaseuasa

The Ilaseuasa, also called the Scion Chruches, are the autocephalous branches of the Kapuhenasa which were developed and established by Alihantapa Roasa'ahuani as a way to administer the many ethnic customs of the various Loa cultures. The scions are predominantly concerned with dispensing local legal judgement and for maintaining and codifying indigenous religious practices. More to come, heading into work =Insular Ilaseuasa= This is all a work in progress, I just vomited this up. I'll rework it. 'The Insular scion is one of the original four scion churches, and it is considered to be the oldest church, being closer in line to the faith of the original Incarnate. This scion is found in all of the Island Kingdoms, as well as Nisoma, being the predominant religion of the Batana Coast, the Nisoma River System and the Mi'ikuelu River System, and as such much of its mythology and cosmology is derived from these regions. The predominant goddess is Paouala, the creator goddess of the Loa, who is thought to have guided them through the previous end of the world and who originally cultivated Nagala. She is revered as the supreme guide of the Loa people, and the Katu of the Celestial Bodies. There are hundreds of shrines devoted to her in the territory of the scion, and her shrine complex is the most influential. Worship is predominantly done through sacrifices of flowers and fruit on the days of the full moon. In modern day aniconist Takatta Loa, she is associated with the icon of the crescent moon, with its empty space ringed by five stars, representing the animate stars. She is also revered as the Anticipation of the First Incarnate. However, the worship of Ba'ale'e and Ninnuekahaolo, the sea god of the Batana Coast and the goddess of the river Nisoma respectively. Ba'ale'e is worshipped as the lord of the sea, and regular sacrifices on every new moon take place, with the people offering coconut and rice mash and baked fish to aniconic representations of squid. In addition, upon reaching puberty, girls are expected to live in coastal seaward facing shacks for upwards of a year as 'sea brides'. It is thought that this blesses all children that will be born, but it also serves as a way of discerning shamans through secret and esoteric methods. These shamans will be expected to devote themselves to Ba'ale'e and conduct worship as well interpret his will in the shells and debris that washes up from the shore. Ninnuekahaolo is worshipped as the goddess of fertility and prosperity. The relatively few shrines of Nisoma as based entirely in the river as barges. The attendants and priests live as ascetics, surviving entirely off of Nisoma's bounty, and take in orphans to raise as devotees of the goddess. A festival once every other full moon takes place where worshippers pray for a good harvest and for the safety of children. In Classical Takatta Loa, this was also accompanied by conducting an idol into the river to bathe it, this renewing the power of the idol. Nowadays, household shrines are centered around a small plinth or pillar made of river stone with Ninnuekahaolo's name written upon it, which the family carries into the river to bathe.'
