Aumeric casually throws out "gods" and "by the twelve" in conversation, but he is not one of true faith. Not by a long shot. Though he was born under the signs of Oschon and has such documented on the records of his birth, he honors the god no more than any of the others. His parents are far from devout, and his only real exposure to religious matters was through text. The first deity who had any bearing on his life was a far more tangible one, with a far more tangible role in the world around him- Garuda. While he doesn't precisely worship her, he has a real appreciation for how terrible and powerful the primal goddess is, as a ward of the Ixal and as a summoner who wields the power of her egi. And that has colored how he sees the hierarchy of gods in Hydaelyn- primals are real, and powerful, to be feared or honored or fought or worshipped, and in some ways are more valid gods than the absent Twelve.
