Hirdic mythology refers to the polytheistic beliefs of the Hirdic people, which developed into the Radic and Riyanic mythologies. Due to the differing cultures of mythology in the two branches and a lack of attested records, not much is known about the exact nature of Hirdic mythology other than that it was polytheistic, though many deities can be ‘reconstructed’ from parallels in Radic and Riyanic mythology. The depictions and corresponding beliefs of parallel deities in their respective mythologies are typically not shared.
Relations to Laefevic mythology
Certain spirits from Laefevic mythology are understood to be parallels of certain Hirdic deities, potentially relics of early Laenkean beliefs. The most apparent example of this is the spirit of judgement and reincarnation Lidow (Laefevian Lidwa), comparable to the Radic god of judgement and law Litow (Radestrian Letua).
