Neithur

Other Names
Neithur
Waejiran god of death, the dead, time, and memory. He is sometimes called the Keeper of the Gate. Neithur is most often depicted as a figure robed in ash grey funeral shrouds wearing an expressionless full face mask of bronze. He is considered timeless and capable of seeing forwards and backwards through time. He is also attributed with the ability to slow or stop the aging process in mortals; part of what keeps the Children of Neithur unaging and near immortal. Neithur oversees the passage of the souls of the departed; it is through his door that all living things pass, to be carried to Silat, to rejoin with the creator and await rebirth.

Neithur is not feared, but welcomed, as Waejirans do not see dying as an end, but as another turning of the life wheel. Neither was born of directly from Silat.
