I haven't really thought about religion in Rivener but I just thought of something too amazing not to include. So Wren's not religious, she hasn't had the time or space to think anything about it, but Kai is.

His shifter clan specifically have something like patron saints, holy figures, mythologized or mythological ancestors, who they speak to and call on for comfort, and they are—

Sister Sorrow and Brother Bone and Mother Solace (and Father something, undecided). And they came about in response to the Cataclysms that broke the world.
