"Wulwur looked out upon the fields where his tenants stood, despairing
their wilted crop. There would again be no harvest this year. The
Valanian had noticed the shrines fallen into disrepair, many of the stones had
been removed to repair fences and chimneys. They had sowed Kandlan's reward
in the past and now would feel his wrath."

- Unkn. 1. God of mountains worshipped

Origins of the blind god Gnot can be found in the mythology of both
the Ortori and the Dwürden. The Ortor believe that Gnot was
once a wise and powerful war-king who ruled all the lands he viewed
in life. A rival of the war-king blinded him so that his kingdom
would grow no further. When he grew old and died, the war-king
Gnot was buried in the high mountains where his followers claimed that
death would grant him new sight. The war-king Gnot's new sight made
him king of the land, which he could view from his grave. The
Dwürden Gnot is alternatively known as Gendor among the folk of
Vulmura. Gendor is a patriarchal figure of Dwürden legend
who is believed to have fathered six sons, who each in turn became the
leaders of the six Dwürden Mor clans of Vulmura. Gendor is
known as the "Father of the Mountains" to the Vulmuran Dwürden.
The name was shortened to Gnot by the Terèthori clans,
who claim the Ortor adopted the name for their own stories. The
Terèthori Dwürden are greatly angered by any claims that
Gnot is in Ortori in origin.
