Coacuendo Mythology

Coacuendo Mythology refers to the diverse set of beliefs of the Coacuendo people's of Inyursta.

Loas (Demigods)

Quija-Loa

Quija-Loa are half-titan, half-god demigods. They generally take the form of monsters or beasts themselves, and rule the mortal realm as powerful predators or masters of their environment. The Quija-Loa are believed to be immortal, and generally regarded to be unable to enter the spirt world. Many Coacuendo sects believe that the end times will see a reduction of humankind to extinction while the Quija-Loa engage each other in a never-ending war for what's left of the mortal world.

Yacún-Borão

The Yacún-Borão or Yacúbora is a winged serpent descended from the

Majcha-Loa

Majcha-Loa are half-human, half-god demigods. Their exact relation to the mortal realm and the spirit world remains debated, even among Coacuendo mythology. For example, the hero Pactaygo was the son of Amiroca and a human warrior chief, and he is alleged to have lived over 500 years, implying a level of delayed mortality beyond humans but inferior to the Quija-Loa. On the other hand, Tucalaq Moquisu II a.k.a. "King Tucalaq" or "The Shark King" claimed that he was also the son of Amiroca and his father, king Tucalaq Moquisu I; though he was ultimately considered to be mostly mortal and ultimately died at the hand of a "Sun Warrior". It is generally believed that unlike the immortal Quija-Loa, the Majcha-Loa will ascend to the spirit world after death; though even this varies based on legend as some Quija-Loa ascend to the Placha of their patron Ouira while others ascend to their own personal placha and live in death as a minor god of their own.
