The Cult of Sol [[Minerva]] presides over wisdom, strategic planning, and scholarly arcana. It is the primary patron of magical research institutions, though it now bears the official designation Sol [[Minerva]] following the hostile takeover by [[Sol Invictus]]. ## Subsidiary Structure Although the cult retains the external structure of [[Minerva]], it now operates under the name Sol [[Minerva]] and serves [[Sol Invictus]]. Athena [[Minerva]] has been exiled from her own [[Cult Structure]], now officially rebranded as the Cult of Sol [[Minerva]], which is now an instrument of solar governance. Due to rising theological and jurisdictional tensions with the cult of [[Sulis Minerva]] at Aquae Sulis, [[Sol Invictus]] has recently begun placing increased pressure on the British subsidiary cult leadership. This includes heightened oversight, ideological inspections, and intensified recruitment of loyalist magistrates. The strained relationship stems from [[Sulis Minerva]]'s older, syncretic roots and her lingering alignment with the original Minervan principles, which remain subtly resistant to solar integration. ### Regional Enforcers - **Sancus** – God of oaths, contracts, and bureaucratic enforcement. - **Fidius** – Twin of Sancus; oversees integrity of registries and civic magical filings. ### District Overseer - **[[Terminus]]** – God of magical boundaries, permit enforcement, and containment law. These three form the governing triumvirate of the [[Lindum Colonia]] branch of the false Cult of Sol [[Minerva]]. ### Lesser (Disused) Deities - Prudentia – former goddess of foresight and tactical caution - Notitia – spirit of memory and perfect recall - Lexica – deity of spell grammar and incantation syntax
