The One Million Gods

There are said to be '''a million gods''' in Jhelum.

No one has counted them.

== Gods Great And Small ==

Some gods are vast:
* Worshipped across cities  
* With temples and priesthoods  

Others are small:
* A spirit of a river bend  
* A god of a single household  
* A presence tied to a single tree  

All are real—to those who believe.

== Worship ==

Worship takes many forms:
* Offerings of food, coin, or blood  
* Festivals and processions  
* Quiet prayers at roadside shrines  

A person may honor many gods—or none.

== Temples And Priests ==

Temples are centers of power:
* Places of learning  
* Keepers of tradition  
* Brokers of influence  

Priests are not always kind—and never powerless.

== Hungry Gods ==

Some gods demand more:
* Blood  
* Obedience  
* Acts that test the faithful  

These gods are feared—and often obeyed.

== Forgotten Gods ==

The jungle hides:
* Shrines long abandoned  
* Idols no longer named  
* Powers that have not faded  

To wake such a god is dangerous.

== The Truth Of It ==

Whether there are a million gods or only a few wearing many faces…

No one in Jhelum is foolish enough to assume the answer.
