Some of the text on this page is from the Beta build of the game. |
Worship provides many bonuses to the player. The Gods of Elin each have their own domains and relationships with each other.
Bonuses from worship scale with how long you have been worshipping the deity in question, as well as your favor with him or her.
Special actions granted by worship cost stamina to activate.

Worship
By right-clicking on the altar and selecting “Worship”option, you can worship that deity.
At the Truce Ground, there are altars set up for the seven Pillars of Ylva (Izpalt, Opatos, Kumiromi, Jure, Lulwy, Ehekatl, and Mani) and Eyth. Note that the altar of Mani is also located in Aquli Teola, so if you wish to worship him, we recommend that you head that way, which is closer to My home.
As for the other deities, Kizuami has an altar dedicated to him in Mifu Village, Horome in Nefu Village, and Yevan in The Place Where Winds Rest.
If you convert to another god while you have faith in a deity other than Eyth, you will receive divine punishment from the original deity with a strength corresponding to the number of days of faith.
Praying
The player may pray to their god once a day. Praying completely heals the player's HP and MP, in addition to training faith and a relevant stat a small amount (speed for Lulwy). Unlike in Elona, it does not cost favor.
Offerings and Favor
The player may offer an item as an offering by highlighting an altar of their god and selecting the "offer" option, or directly placing the item on the altar.
While all the gods of Ylva accept corpses as offerings, each also accepts other items. Heavier corpses and more valuable offerings grant more favor. Gifting offerings also trains the player's faith.
Unlike in Elona, gods do not appear to have favored offerings amongst those they accept. Instead, particularly valuable offerings will provoke the same response from the player's worshipped deity that was reserved for favored offerings in Elona.
Other changes from Elona include the fact that food-based offerings, such as fish and vegetables, are worth much less when spoiled. Also, they cannot be offered after being cooked. However, for gods who favor cooked dishes, the raw ingredients cannot be offered; for example, Kizuami will request "noodle dishes" but will not accept "noodles" before they are cooked.
A stack of items can be offered all at once; it will count as a single offering with the combined weight/value of the entire stack.
Favor can be exchanged for goods and services. When the player has acquired enough piety by making offerings, praying will deliver a reward.
The Value of the Offering
The text of the item's dedication gives the approximate value of the item (the favor gained).
Value | Message |
---|---|
< 0.5 | disappears. |
0.5 ~ 2.0 | shines for a moment and disappears. |
2.0 ~ 3.0 | shines for a moment and disappears. A three-leaved falls from the alter. |
> 3.0 | shines all around and disappears. + Response from your God |
There are two main standards of value for offerings, either variable in weight or fixed value. The quality of the offering has no effect on its value, with rotten food having the lowest value unconditionally.
Depends on total weight (corpses, fish, equipment)
The ratio of weight to value varies for each type of offering
Corpses: 1.0 / 1.0s, fish: 1.0 / 0.2s, equipment: 1.0 / 0.5s
Fixed value
All stackable items except corpses and fish are worth 1 point each.
All non-stackable books and rods are supposed to have the following values, regardless of the number of uses remaining, type, or deciphering status.
Magic books: +4, Ancient Books and Naughty Books: +5, Rods: +3
Stacking and dedicating items increases the strength of each offering.
However, there is an upper limit to the amount of favor that can be increased by a single offering, and if too many items are offered at once, the excess will be wasted.
The maximum amount is 30 points, so it is advisable to make offerings in smaller portions.
(currently being verified) Maximum amount of items to be offered at one time.
A border is set for each 30 points of favor, and if you dedicate all the points exceeding this border at once, the points earned for the amount exceeding the border will be reduced to about half the value. In addition, the excess can only accumulate a maximum of 15 points (equivalent to 30 points without halving).
Therefore, the maximum amount of favor that can be raised by a single offering is 45 points (equivalent to 30 points plus 15 points for the excess half).
Favor
The upper limit of favor is faith skill x 30, and the approximate current value can be measured from the yellow-green text that appears every 30 points earned.
The message will vary according to the ratio of the current favor to the maximum favor. If the message “You have felt oneness with God.” means that you are currently at the maximum level of faith, and you will need to increase your faith skill level to deepen your faith beyond that point.
Current value/max value | Message |
---|---|
0 ~ 25% | You felt God's presence far away. |
25 ~ 45% | You felt the distance between you and God shrinking. |
45 ~ 75% | You feel a sense of peace. |
75 ~ 99% | You feel as if your God is right beside you. |
100% | You felt oneness with God. |
Altar conversion
Offering an item on an altar not of one's god will attempt to claim the altar for the player's god. The success chance is dependent on the offering's favor gain. Failure will result in punishment. Attempts to convert altars dedicated to Eyth will never fail as the altar is considered empty.
Special altars like Mani's machine altar in Aqui Teola and Kizuami and Horome's shrines in Mifu Village and Nefu Village cannot be converted.
Rewards
Pets
The first reward a god offers will be a pet. This follower will be of the apostle race, and always has the faith of its respective god. They are all considered good for riding.
While you can collect followers from different gods, attempting to put more than two in a party together will cause infighting amongst the different apostles, which practically speaking means you can only ever use two at a time at most.

Blessing
Obtaining a pot of water and placing it on the altar of one's god (Eyth included) will bless the water. The blessed water can then be blended with an item to bless it.
Placing water on an altar of a god one is not aligned with will curse it instead, and the cursed water can be blended with an item to curse it.
Relation
Gods begin the game indifferent to the player. The relation value can be negative or positive. Turning apostate from one god to the other reduces relation by a small amount from the god one is forsaking, but has no change in relation for the god of new worship. Certain actions seem to passively change the relation with gods, but offerings change relation more actively.
Attempting to convert an altar and failing (200 turns) or turning apostate (length dependent on previous degree of worship) hexes the player with a Punishment Hex which places an iron ball in their inventory that cannot be dropped, burdening the player. The weight of this ball is variable and scales with the player's carrying capacity.
The Pantheon
The Seven Pillars
The chief deities of Ylva: Itzpalt, Opatos, Kumiromi, Jure, Lulwy, Ehekatl and Mani (formerly Eyth). They govern large domains that impact the daily lives of Ylva's population and command most of the worship to be had.
Major Gods
Major deities of the pantheon. While not as prominent as the Seven Pillars, they hold sway over sizeable domains and have a good number of followers.
Examples of major gods are Elin of Harmony and Yakasha of Oblivion.
Minor Gods
Lesser gods of the pantheon. They govern smaller or specialized domains which the major gods have overlooked, and are worshipped by a smaller number of select peoples or professions.
Examples of lesser gods are Kizuami of Trickery and Horome of Moonshadow.
Negentropy (Chaos) Gods
Some gods are bad. During previous ages of Ylva, they were defeated in holy wars and sealed away by the Seven Pillars of the pantheon.
Innos Tur'as is an example of a negentropy god, and may be encountered in The Place Where Winds Rest.
