The Jin worship a death god called '''T'rath''', but they also believe this god perished long before their race was birthed. They believe their deatheye and the connection to death it grants them is evidence of T'rath reaching forward from the distant past to grant them this power. In return, they honor his memory and live their lives with death ever in their minds. The Jin believe that death represents the single most important part of life. Death is universal, and utterly transformative; a good life is one that ends with a good death. They believe that the failure to honor death does a grave disservice to all life, and that those who do not share in their religion can nevertheless be consecrated through death. | The [[Jin]] worship a death god called '''T'rath''', but they also believe this god perished long before their race was birthed.

The Jin believe that death represents the single most important part of life. Death is universal, and utterly transformative; a good life is one that ends with a good death. They believe that the failure to honor death does a grave disservice to all life, and that those who do not share in their religion can nevertheless be consecrated through death. Many Jin meditate this notion at great length in traditional Jin martial art [[Ir-Vothiam]]. | |||
