The Embrace of Shadows

Arafia, the Primordial Spirit of darkness and night, was born from the chaotic energies of Astram within the Primordial Void. Arafia emerged when Daathir contemplated the void around them, bringing forth the essence of darkness.

Nature and Influence

Arafia is not merely the absence of light; it is a presence in its own right, a force that shapes the world just as surely as its radiant counterpart, Dharas. Arafia is the embodiment of the night sky, the shadows that dance in the corners of perception, and the darkness that conceals mysteries untold. It represents the unknown, the unseen, and the hidden depths of existence.

Significance and Worship

Arafia is revered throughout Adaris as a source of wisdom, transformation, and hidden power. Temples and shrines dedicated to Arafia are often dimly lit, adorned with symbols of the night and the unseen. Rituals and practices associated with Arafia often involve meditation, dream interpretation, and the exploration of the subconscious.

Many seek Arafia's blessings for guidance in times of change, for the courage to face their fears, and for the wisdom to navigate the complexities of life. Artists and mystics find inspiration in Arafia's depths, seeking to capture the essence of the unknown in their works. Others offer prayers and sacrifices to appease the shadows and ward off nightmares.
