==Background==

* A Religious Cult in the City which practices [[Cubism]]
* Seen as especially pious
* Follows the gospel according to [[Gyvann]]
* Formerly worshiped [[The Receda Cube]] as one of the true forms of God.
** This changed, however, when it was revealed that the Cube was a weapon of mass destruction.

* Temple is Located just south of the [[Mazy River]]
** At the intersection of [[Jiriki Road]], [[Khuon Lane]], and [[Object Road]].

* May be one of the oldest Cubist groups known.
* Is considered by many to be succeeded by such other Cubist groups as The [[Reconstructionists]] and [[The Brotherhood in the Old Town]].
* Includes (though, is not exclusively) a celibate order dedicated to good works and a fuller understanding of the Cube

* Has long kept silent on the topic of construction in the Old Town.
** Began speaking out in favour of construction in mid 2006.
** The significance here is unclear.

* Meditation is a key part of the faith, which is done while sitting inside a large cube.
* Wholeness of body, eschewing drink and drugs are also encouraged tenets
* Also, this is a religion of proselytizing.  Spreading the good word is somewhat required of members.

* Observes the Following holy days:
** [[The Builder's celebration]] - at Spring Equinox, this is a time to lay foundations to new buildings.
** [[Gyvann's Day]] - at summer Solstice, a cheerful celebration with burning torches and feasting, honoring [[Gyvann]]
** [[The Lighting of the Way]] - at autumn equinox, the festival of re-affirming our dedication to the Cube and of witnessing Gyvann's message to the world.
** [[Restitution of the Cube]] - celebrated at the Winter Solstice, with three days of prayer, meditation. It is traditional to light cube-shaped candles at this time.

* In 2006, following the discovery that [[The Receda Cube]] was a weapon of mass destruction, religious fervor in the city seemed to flail into an all-time low.  However, following an early-December swelling, that year's Restitution of The Cube was met with burgeoning throngs of followers across the city.

* Plans a great commemoration of the Syzygy, an astronomical event considered to have great religious import.
** The celebration will tap the artistic talents of [[Randal Tokei]]'s [[Beauty Alliance]].

==Known Members==
*Sister [[Golda Flynnt]]
*Sister [[April Flynnt]]
**Twin sisters.
