查看“Righteous Path”的源代码

The '''Righteous Path''' cultural belief prevalent throughout [[Haless]], especially in rural and poorer areas. Less of a religion, the Righteous Path is more of a collection of local folklore and superstition, primarily surrounding the life-force [[Chi]]. It is said that the Righteous Path is like a river: it is different in each land and each people, but all part of the greater flow of life. The [[Lefthand Path]] is considered to be the dark reflection of the Righteous path.

==Views on Chi==
Righteous Path puts emphasis on refining and growing ones chi, but the methdos on how to do so differ between the [[Xianjie]] and the rural regions of [[Haless Proper]]. Techniques on retaining chi however remained similiar, as both agreed that sleeping indoors and proper burials were necessary in retaining it.

The monks of Xianjie focused more on practicing martial arts and meditation as methods of cultivating chi, turning it into an extension of ones will. Those that focus on fighting use it perform supernatural feats of strength, while those that focus on meditation seek to reach enlightenment by opening their thought to the wider world. Monks who reach the highest level of physical and mental enlightenment isolate themselves from the rest of the world, only appearing when they are needed, but are willing to give advice and guidance to those who come seeking it.

The People in Haless Proper have no one central way of refining ones chi, but the most prevalent one is that simply doing ones job with diligence would refine and grow ones chi. Other alleged methods include taking care of ones family, participating in rituals, dancing, and festivals would help in the growth of personal chi.
