History & Theory of Origin[]
Lake Kodarve holds a significant place in the history and mythology of the Triunics. According to their beliefs, the Old Kukatodics, who inhabited the region of Yyl Möitsä prior to their migration to the Islands, followed the practices of Muäliusko, Spirits of the World. The Old Kukatodics lived near the Serpentspine, the Giant's Anvil, and the Blue Sea and Kodarve, and their faith was closely related to the modern religion of Möitsäliusko practiced by the Kukatodics.
When the Centaurs invaded the region, they showed no mercy to the human inhabitants, including the wise crones who served as intermediaries between the spirit world and the material world. The crones' mass killing led many Old Kukatodics to believe that the connection between these two worlds was in danger. Some fled north and became the modern Kukatodics, while the majority fled east across the waters and became the Metsamics.
Facing the threat of the Centaurs, a few crones invoked the aid of Kodarve Lake by drowning themselves in its waters along with their spiritual artifacts. According to legend, this act caused a tsunami to rise from the lake and annihilate the Centaurs. Since then, Kodave has been regarded as the protector of the islands by the Triunics, including the Metsamics.
The Forbidden Plains are the only region of Haless that does not interact with the Spirit Plane, and it is theorised that this slaughter and sacrifice is the reason for this anomaly.
