[Skadi crosses her arms, shifting her weight from one foot to the other as she speaks.] Some are unique to a hold, but there are a few that all Avvar pay their respects to; Korth the Mountain-Father, Hakkon Wintersbreath, and The Lady of the Skies.
Korth is also known as the Father of the Skies, the eldest and strongest god. Everything found in the mountains stems from him, and it's through him that we have all we need. The Lady is goddess of all above Korth's domain, of birds and even the wind itself. She's also the goddess of the dead and instead of cremating our people as the Andrastians do, we have sky burials. The body is laid out, prayers given and when the birds come, they carry the soul to the Lady of the Skies. And then there's Hakkon Wintersbreath. He is Korth's firstborn and the Lord of War and Winter. We tend to raid and wage war in winter, to honor him and because our resistance to cold gives us an edge over lowlanders.
