[edit] Human Religions
[edit] Helgrind
The Worshipers of Helgrind were a cult in Dras-Leona who sacrificed body parts in order to become closer to the spiritual world.
[edit] Superstitions
Many humans were superstitious. When Brom was young, he would knock on the doorway every time he entered a room. In Carvahall, whenever someone died, a sprig of hemlock was placed on their chest, an iron amulet was placed around their neck and black pebbles were placed over their eyes.
[edit] Dwarf Religion
The dwarves believed in a variety of gods, whom they made sacrifices to. They also believed that when a dwarf was killed, he must be buried under stone before he could enter the afterlife.
[edit] Elf Religion
The elves were devoted atheists. They believed that there was never any deity. They only believed in the things that they could observe. Oromis also stated that, if there was a god, then that god was not a good steward of the earth. He pointed out several examples: war, death, and the corrupt rule of Galbatorix.
