| - According to Erzael, who wrote the New Book of Hope, issued the Eighteen Eternal Edicts, and wrote the Slave Songs, Freedmon's prophecies were fulfilled with the birth of Billow the Slave. Erzael's writings became Nonagonic canon, and to followers of the Faith o' Nine, Billow the Slave was the 1st Avatar of Canetol.

| - According to Erzael, who wrote the New Book of Hope, issued the Eighteen Eternal Edicts, and wrote the Slave Songs, Freedmon's prophecies were fulfilled with the birth of Billow the Slave. Erzael's writings became Nonagonic canon, and to followers of the Faith o' Nine, Billow the Slave was the 1st Avatar of Canetol. In the New Book of Hope, Erzael prophesized Canetol Come Again, and the Fall of Humankind. His first convert, the Last Sealhag, wrote the introductory book of the Book of Books, the Unforbidden. Thus giving us our conventional order for the Book of Books: the Unforbidden, the Book of Guidance, the Book of Deceit, the Book of Song, the Book of Discord, the Book of Prayer, the Book of Blasphemy, the Book of Baptism, the Book of Damnation, the Book of Fertility, the Book of Barrenness, the Book of Sacrifice, the Book of Narcissism, the Book of Love, the Book of Hate, the Book of Honor, the Book of Shame, the Book of Hope (which can be divived into two parts: Part I detailing Freedmon's life, and Part II detailing Canetol's Coming), the Book of Despair, the New Book of Hope (which can be divided into three parts: Part I detailing the life of Erzael, Part II being the issuing of the Eighteen Eternal Edicts, and Part III detailing Canetol Come Again, and the Fall of Humankind), and the Slave Songs (the Song of the Captured, the Song of the Kennel, and the Song of the Rebel). According to the Faith of Freedmon, however, all of what Erzael, and the Last Sealhag wrote is not considered Nonagonic canon. This includes the creation story supplied by the Unforbidden, and indeed most Freedmen hold that we live in an infinite universe with no beginning or end. This is all in stark contrast with the Faith of the Fallen, which holds that all of what Erzael, and the Last Sealhag is Nonagonic canon, and more than that, they believe all of it has already happened, and that humankind is currently living in a post-apocalyptic world. The majority sect of the Faith of the Fallen, the Lobtonne Sect, holds that the world ended on CC: 01/1/5,218 with the tearing of the Skyscar over Billow's Sea, and the death of the First Tallman. They, along with every sect besides the Jenes Sect, hold that Hockrott the Hornman, Landeles the God-From-the-Lightning, Calthoss the Goddess-in-the-Flames, Duke Gebel Snakepit, Ayeson Garlcutter, Billow Sayerburn, the nameless woman, Great-Knight Ross Fourthwalk, and Duchess Vayess Halfsmith were avatars of the nine gods. They disagree over which gods exactly they were avatars of (with the exception of Landeles, and Cal, who are universally seen as avatars of Yornn, and Ana respectively, even by the Jenes Sect). Another important disagreement is whether or not these gods will ever have avatars again. Many sects hold that they will not reincarnate, but the Makal Sect, the second-largest sect, holds that the gods do reincarnate, and that it is in a form very similar to the nameless child of the Faith of the Nameless Child. They hold that Makal is a reincarnation of Hockrott the Hornman, that Billow reincarnated as Almos the YELLOW, that the nameless woman reincarnated as Princess Jenes Estel. Every sect holds that Gebel killed the true physical body of God, and also destroyed whatever god he was (it is universally held by all but the Jenes Sect that he was Enn), The Jenes Sect for its part holds that Hockrott was Canetol Come Again, Landeles was Yornn, Cal was Ana, Jenes was Nari, Almos the YELLOW was Tarttes, Billow was Mattes, the nameless woman was Saye, Ross was Elkett, and King Mattes was Enn. All of these sects have detailed this information quite thoroughly in their own versions of what they call the New Book of Despair. By CC: 6,217, the Faith of the Fallen has taken over this Earth as the dominant faith, and it has even spread to the Mur as a minor faith.
