# 4 Pillars
The 4 Pillars are the gods that appear in the night sky. In the [[Acilic|Acilian Religion]], they are the Pillar of [[Spring (god)|Spring]], [[Summer (god)|Summer]], [[Autumn (god)|Autumn]], and [[Winter (god)|Winter]]. The 4 Pillars exist almost universally in every religion, albeit usually under different names but are understood to be the same god under different aspects.
| Acilian | Spring | Summer | Autumn | Winter |

They each occupy one of the seasons and have certain forms of divinity associated to them.
- Spring: Life and Nature
- Summer: Absolute Power
- Autumn: Magic
- Winter: Time
#### Pillar Guardians
The 4 Pillars each have a number of [[Pillar Guardians|Guardians]] associated to them. The Guardians are all gods in their own rights, but unlike the Pillars themselves, they all have the ability to appear on the mortal plane.
- Spring has 3 ([[Vigilant Watchers]]):
- [[Saori]], [[Leyline]], [[Huntsman]]
- Summer has 5 ([[Standing Towers]]):
- [[Firmament]], [[Sun]], [[Major Moon]], [[Minor Moon]], [[Death]]
- Autumn has 11 ([[Fateful Stones]]):
- [[Garnet]], [[Ruby]], [[Topaz]], [[Jade]], [[Emerald]], [[Turquoise]], [[Sapphire]], [[Lapis]], [[Amethyst]], [[Black Opal]], [[Diamond]]
- Winter has 7 ([[Serpentine Devourers]]):
- [[Void Dragon]], [[Fire Dragon]], [[Judgement Dragon]], [[Water Dragon]], [[Earth Dragon]], [[Steel Dragon]], [[World Dragon]]
Though in the [[Race of Elf|Elven Religion]], each pillar and their guardian are seen almost as 1 entity and makes very little distinction between them.
#### Worship
The Pillar Gods are worshipped as the creator gods of [[World Name]]. They might be under different names but are all in a sense the same divine. They are seen as dormant and no longer active.
