Description

It is Gurka’s position in the pantheon to ensure the propagation of the race. While diametrically opposed to Aksira, these two actually depend on each other. With no death, Gurka would have no need to propagate the species. And with no mating and births, they would be no saurians for Aksira to kill. Likewise, these two churches are diametrically opposed and often make war on each other.

Religion

Gurka has no physical temples, but every saurian home is considered holy ground for him. Anywhere that a saurian male takes a female is also holy ground. Saurians believe that Gurka often assumes physical form to mate with saurian females and any child born of such a union is bound for greatness.
