The Coming of Vaona /'vjuːnə/ was a cult that started in Mantar at the end of the 16th CSR. It was centered around the belief that a giant goddess Vaona was about to descend from the skies.
Beliefs
The belief in giant gods and goddesses originated in the mythology of the Oaleed. According to the myths, the giants live on the hill of Mantar. Mantar was considered sacred land and the Oaleed did not allow anyone to climb the hill. Eventually the myths changed and while Mantar is still considered sacred, the idea was transformed into it being the only true home for the Oaleed, a notion that was probably driven by Oaleed losing territory throughout the 1-2 CSR.
