The Light (god)

The Light is the mysterious deity of the dao. It was introduced to them by the cultural hero Halat Lightseeker, who led the dao out of their imprisonment inside the planet. According to its clergy, the Light has a plan for the dao, and an important part of that plan would be the Lightreach Project.

Origin
The true identity of the Light has sparked much controversy among theologicians. Daonic tradition holds that the Light is the only truly divine being in the world, and a vehement opponent of the Noise. Aeonic propaganda defies any connections between the Light and Ai-An. Finally, some think that the Light does not exist, and the 'plan' is merely an elaborate hoax by Maalong.
