ABSTRACTION:
unity, not uniformity, for a better temuair
Our spark demands us to rise to a new occasion and new circumstances. Each of us must begin the greatest work in Temuair: To set us all free, and on a cycle of renewal and reinvigoration.

Dear Reader, thank you for making it to the end.
As stated at the onset, through exploring Glioca's relationships with other Gods, my goals were for this text to:
I am hopeful that I have achieved these goals, and have convinced you that each fellowship teaches us different qualities in enabling Temuair to thrive.
Perhaps more importantly, each faith is also able to learn from other faiths to better themselves, something that I hope has been elucidated in the sections before.
As stated at the onset, through exploring Glioca's relationships with other Gods, my goals were for this text to:
- Serve as a foundation text for Gliocans exploring their faith,
- Serve as a reference text for Aislings of other Faiths to learn about Glioca, and;
- Offer a perspective of how Glioca further helps to promote the interfaith harmony we currently enjoy.
I am hopeful that I have achieved these goals, and have convinced you that each fellowship teaches us different qualities in enabling Temuair to thrive.
Perhaps more importantly, each faith is also able to learn from other faiths to better themselves, something that I hope has been elucidated in the sections before.
To encapsulate it all, I humbly share a prayer that I wrote, in the order of the Octave:
"A Prayer of Hope, for Temuair"
By Merisa Lightbelle
Danaan, with her unyielding determination over Eons,
Weaved together the foundations of our Aisling Spark.
Deoch, with his fiery Inspiration,
Pushes us to aggressively Imagine and Live our best Lives.
Cail, with his penchant for Harmony,
Guides us to be Mindful, and to Appreciate every single moment.
Glioca, with her boundless Compassion and Love for all,
Enlightens us to always believe in the Best in others.
Gramail, with his conviction for Balance,
Prepares us to shape a Vision that is most likely to Persuade others to our Cause.
Luathas, with his focus on Knowledge and Gnosis,
Instructs us that Detail and Logic is crucial for any plan to succeed.
Ceannlaidir, with his passion towards Honor and Courage,
Encourages us to have the Bravery to pursue them.
Fiosachd, with his wit and cunning towards Wealth,
Reminds us that Fortune plays an undeniable part in all that we do.
Sgrios, with his insistence on Death and Decay,
Illuminates us as to the value of Life.
Chadul, with his Encroaching Darkness,
Threatens to return all to Nothingness.
Aislings, grouped in Unity,
Fights to keep the Darkness at bay.

To conclude, Unity, not Uniformity, must be our ultimate vision. And we attain unity only through variety. Differences must be integrated, not annihilated, not absorbed. If Temuair is to prosper, the role of every God is indispensable, and every Aisling must stand up and be counted.
To you, Reader, I truly believe in my heart, that regardless of our faiths, we are all made in Danaan's image, made for togetherness, and we all belong to her family.
Wishing you well,
