Akalism is the state religion of Waytseia, centered around the god Akal (and sometimes Dahanö), from which the name originates. It was founded in c. 693 in modern-day Liosol by the prophet Endecy the Wise. Akalism believes that the world was created by two gods, Akal, god of life and light, and Dahanö, god of death and darkness. Despite being the god of darkness, Dahanö is not seen as evil, as he merely takes people to the Afterlife when they die and is necessary to keep balance in the universe.
Representation
Dahanö is most often represented as a skeletal humanoid bird, due to the fact that the (Akalist holy scripture name) describes it as a "lifeless husk devoid of flesh, yet still showing signs of the former glory of an angel".
Akal's representations differ depending on the source. Some depict it as some hooded humanoid figure, but the general consensus is that Akal is not a physical being, as opposed to Dahanö, and is thus often said to be the fabric of the universe itself.
