	There are dozens of denominations and sects of Bez, many of which diverged from their Cahilan origins due to political differences, teachings of heretical messiahs, and geographical distance causing changes in practice over time. It's difficult to declare a definitive "original" Cahilan Bez religion, and in fact there may not have been one at all. It is very likely that the cultural mixing and diffusion of ideas and peoples during the Cahilan migrations led to philosophical mixing with the previous inhabitants and their faiths.		There are dozens of denominations and sects of Bez, many of which diverged from their Cahilan origins due to political differences, teachings of heretical messiahs, and geographical distance causing changes in practice over time. It's difficult to declare a definitive "original" Cahilan Bez religion, and in fact there may not have been one at all. It is very likely that the cultural mixing and diffusion of ideas and peoples during the Cahilan migrations led to philosophical mixing with the previous inhabitants and their faiths.

	By 1500BR, there were several faiths described in writing throughout southern Menaiceraum that shared Bez-like traits. As these societies became more established, beliefs continued to mix, but eventually clash, coinciding with political power conflicts. The first time a unified authority held dominion over the majority of Bez adherents was the Fwonnel [[Bezuv]] during the [[First Fwonnel Empire]] (740-100BR). By 500BR, even regions not outright conquered by the empire considered the Bezuv to be the leader of their faith. This continued after the fall of the first Empire, subsequent [[Delsh Akuvate]] rule, and rise of the [[Second Fwonnel Empire]] by 150AR.

However, a notable early branch from this Imperial Fwonnel Bez formed during the reign of the First Empire's last Bezuv, [[Neruzin Zani]] - the [[Zani Death Cult]].

	'''Spirits/sprites/naiads (''cirewa'')''' are animal-like beings that are found near sources of fresh water, considered to be new vessels of order that spring from lifegiving points in the world. Some are kind, others are mischievous and can even (very rarely) be outright evil. Many of them take the forms of various fish, reptiles, birds, and arachnids. For example, ''Kuna'' is a bird ''cireu'' that is interpreted to signify the longevity of the viability of a water source.

	Animations (''cinrjawa'') are beings composed of things other than animals, often rocks, plants, moss, mushrooms, or minerals. These are often given more negative traits, as they are seen as vessels of Xororx brought to life to damage things and cause chaos. For example, ''Duk'' is considered a rock ''cinrjau'' that causes landslides.
