The Crystalline Orthodox - Final Fantasy XVI Database

In-game Description

A religion dedicated to the worship of the Mothercrystals. Its priesthood enjoy great power, with the the Patriarch—leader and chief shepherd of the faithful—the most powerful of all. While best known as the state religion of the insular Iron Kingdom, it was once practiced throughout Valisthea. To its believers, the Mothercrystals are literal gods, and the wasteful expenditure of aether through the use of magic is strictly forbidden. As such, those who do use magic— Dominants and Bearers both—are seen as sub-human abominations.
