Ancient Wynnic Mythology

Anciant Wynnic Mythology is the body of myths originated from the west of the Thromian peninsula, the historic Wynnic region. These stories tell the origin of the universe and many other elements of life in our world. While the origins of Wynnic myths are still unknown, recent findings show that their core can be traced back to around 200 BT.

The Wynnic myths initially spread out in an oral tradition called the An Dànachd, performed by fisheries product traders to persuade people to buy their fish by telling the most adventurous stories about how the fish was caught. Eventually, these myths became very popular and were compiled in the 1st century to provide a base for the Old Wynnic religion, known as Wynnic Paganism, in three different works called the Tùss. The first Tùss is about the origin of the universe, the first circle of gods, known as the Cearcall Bunaiteach. The second one deals about the creation of the second circle of gods, the Dàrna Cearcall, and the origin of the planet and humanity. The third and last one tells the journey of Treunach, a demi-god, son of Risoleir the godess of Light and Humanity, who seeks to put an end to the dark times, commonly called the Uamhas, imposed by Uchomain, the god of Darkness. Aside from the three Tùss, local myths are fully considered apart of the mythology.

Pictorial representations of gods, local heroes, and mythic events appear on Pagan churches' frescoes and as ship decorations and paintworks. Sculptures of the gods on ships bows, depictions of mythological scenes on walls and skirting boards as well as temples and stutues, such as the giants of Berkmere, supplement the existing literary evidence of the Wynnic mythology.

The arrival of Theodarity in the Thromian peninsula around the 11th and 12th century started the decline of Wynnic Paganism and hit the popularity of the myths which were claimed as fraudulent and childish by early Theodar gospels. This didn't prevent its complete removal from Wynnic culture as many Wynnic sailors still carry on the traditions set by their ancestors, and intellectuals from West Artopa popularized the myths across the continent by translating the three Tùss after the invention of the printing press.
