Ulreth
Ulreth was a major god in the Thauzunian Orthodoxy, associated with forgotten things, erased knowledge, abandoned names, and the loss of historical continuity. In pre-Fall belief, Ulreth did not destroy information or memory directly; rather, he governed what was no longer preserved. His domain began when records were neglected, when names stopped being spoken, and when events fell out of institutional memory. Forgetting was not treated as failure under Ulreth, but as a structural process that occurred when continuity collapsed.
Orthodox doctrine understood Ulreth as a passive but absolute force. He was not invoked, prayed to, or appealed against. Once something entered his domain, it was considered unrecoverable by mortal effort. Lost histories, erased lineages, abandoned laws, and unmaintained traditions were believed to pass fully into Ulreth’s custody. Unlike gods of death or fate, Ulreth was not associated with transition or choice; his authority was final and silent. What was forgotten did not linger, haunt, or wait—it ceased to matter.
Ulreth was closely tied to institutional failure rather than individual loss. A single forgotten person was insignificant; a forgotten system, archive, or lineage was meaningful. Pre-Fall teachings framed him as the consequence of neglect, not an agent of punishment. When states collapsed, records burned, or priesthoods failed to transmit knowledge, Ulreth’s influence expanded naturally. He was understood as inevitable wherever continuity broke down, but never as malicious or intentional.
No knowledge of Ulreth survives into the post-Fall era. There are no remaining references to his name, role, symbols, or worship. The Thauzunian Orthodoxy itself is entirely unknown to modern Vey’Zari society, and with its disappearance, all formal understanding of Ulreth vanished. He is not recognized in religion, mythology, philosophy, or reconstructed history. There are no surviving cults, distorted legends, or symbolic remnants associated with him. Despite this complete absence of awareness, Ulreth is functionally the most powerful god in the post-Fall world. His domain has expanded uncontested as records were lost, histories erased, institutions dismantled, and memory fragmented. This influence operates without recognition, opposition, or restraint, precisely because it is unknown. Modern Vey’Zari do not invoke Ulreth, fear him, or acknowledge him in any way; nevertheless, every forgotten truth, erased name, and unrecoverable past falls under his authority.
To contemporary society, Ulreth does not exist—not as a god, not as a concept, not even as a myth. His power is exercised entirely without belief or awareness.
