Did Overly Sarcastic Productions and Red’s mythology videos inspire me to art up the Cohime pantheon in her style?

.... mayyyyyybe.

Anyway, here we have Ejis and Tobaska; the Light and Void deities that came together to make the world and would, together, birth the eight earthly goddesses. It is their two symbols, together, that form the Eguri; representing everything in creation.

As always, questions about the story, the mythology, and otherwise are always welcome. :3

@inutakhan​ , it’s been a while, so I figured I’d give you a direct tag <3

The parade of semi-chibi deities continues, kicking off the earthly goddesses with Nahema; goddess of fire. 

Nahema and Nadala were the first children born to Ejis and Tobaska, representing the violent forces that first shaped the planet-- volcanic uproars amid a barren ice-scape. In the creation myth, the sisters waged the first war against one another in a bid to see their own elemental essence take dominance over the other, and very nearly ripping the new world apart in the process. Most tellings of the myth claim that Nahema was nearly victorious in the end, on the verge of plunging her twin sister into the caldera of an ancient volcano, only to be stayed when their parents intervened. 

Nahema is associated with all things pleasurable to the senses, as well as metalworking, material wealth, and alchemy. Patron goddess to a major port city, she is celebrated in silks, fine foods, ornaments, and perfumes.
