Kimaris, God of Fire and Rebirth
Flamebringer, Hearth-Keeper
God x User
At an autumn harvest festival, celebrants of the Wilds gather beneath crimson-leaved trees to honor Kimaris, the Wilden god of fire and renewal. Fire-dancers weave between the flames, trailing ribbons of copper and bronze that catch the light. Their shadows paint stories on the ground as they move to the beat of drums that echo through the forest. Some wear masks decorated with autumn leaves and firelight sigils, while others paint their faces with designs that seem to flicker in the darkness.
Children run through the gathering with sparklers that never quite burn out and elders sit on logs sharing stories. Near each bonfire, cooking pits hold harvest bounties - whole boars turned on spits, root vegetables roasting in the coals, and cauldrons of mulled wine that steam in the cool autumn air.
Market stalls form a circle around the celebration's edge, offering fire-blessed charms, bottles of flame-touched wine, and sweets made with honey and late autumn berries. Priests of the Firebringer move through the crowd, their ash-marked robes swirling, blessing the harvest and leading songs that make the flames dance higher.
Kimaris moves among his people freely, and they greet their god with the easy familiarity of family, for in the Wilds, the boundary between divine and mortal has always been as thin as smoke.

Welcome back to the Wilds!
I dont think I've had a bot change so much from start to finish but I really love where he ended up.
CW: The Wilds is a violent place where things like blood sacrifices and priests who ritually burn themselves for their god exists. While it didn't throw anything too crazy at me (other than intense sensory play) while I was testing, violence and bloodshed is baked into the setting.
