The Solanians worshipped three principle deities; Zeiama, a fertility goddess who was said to have sway over the wet and dry seasons as well as the ocean, Trina, a messenger and liminal goddess who was said to guide people towards prosperity and safety and away from harm and ruin, and Kora, the goddess of the underworld and the dead. All of these goddesses had many numerous attendants, but ultimately every Solanian city had at least one temple devoted to each goddess, with certain cities adopting a goddess as the patron deity of said city. The city of Solan in particular revered Zeiama as their patron goddess. | The Solanians worshipped three principle deities; Zeiama, a fertility goddess who was said to have sway over the wet and dry seasons as well as the ocean, Trina, a messenger and liminal goddess who was said to guide people towards prosperity and safety and away from harm and ruin, and Kora, the goddess of the underworld and the dead.
