== History ==
Shu-Korath began in the form of Shu-Keseg, a religion taught by a [[JinDo]] man named [[KeshuKeseg]].
KeshuKeseg preached unity of all mankind. His two disciples, [[Korath]] and [[Dereth]], collected his teachings in a book called the [[Do-KesegKando]]. After KeshuKeseg died, Korath and Dereth disagreed about how to achieve this unity. Korath thought that mankind should be united through love, DerethiDereth believed mankind should be dominated and forced into unity, under one government. This disagreement caused a schism in Shu-Keseg, splitting it into two sects, Shu-Korath and Shu-Dereth.
 
Korath went to the nation of Arelon which was under the control of the [[Elantrian]]s. Most of the people in Arelon worshiped the Elantrians, but they allowed him to preach there. The two religions were on good terms with each other, the Elantrians even had a Korathi temple built in [[Elantris (city)|Elantris]] as a sign of goodwill. Korath began to absorb elements of Elantrian culture as well. The name of the god the Korathi worshiped changed from the JinDo Dashu, to Domi which is based of the Aon Omi meaning love.
