It is the capital city of Xhorhas, sitting above ground. Arcanists have made the sky into an endless night to shield us from the sun. It looks like Roth.
[ they sigh quietly. ]
We have a sun festival for the Luxon every so often. The artificial sky is dismissed for a while so worship can be done for the Luxon from those who believe in the faith.
[ HELP DON'T JUST SAY THIS. they kind of... very mildly snort under their breath. ]
If others choose to have their own faith, that is fine. My mother follows the faith of the Luxon. My brother, to a certain degree as well, though he is not a zealot.
[ stop that don't take that as a win get outta here ]
I guess it depends on what you mean by afterlife. My people have a way to... participate in reincarnation, so that is what usually comes after death for us, if we happen to be consecuted.

Gale's been chattering about it nonstop already. [...] What's your favorite part?
no subject
I'm not surprised.
[ when does gale NOT chatter about anything really. they pause for a long moment as if thoughtful. ]
The city of Roth. It reminds me of Rosohna, the city where I live.
no subject
I saw a bit of that. It was really pretty, honestly, even if it's all dark. [...] What's Rosohna like? Have you got like festivals and things?

Whoa, wait, so it's not the Underdark? That's insane magic. [o:] Do you believe in the Luxon or whatever?
no subject
No. My people rose from the Underdark long ago after turning away from Lolth, making a city above ground.
[ ... ]
...No, I do not. I believe religion can be a sort of crutch others lean on when they have no way of explaining things to themselves.

I think I could've guessed that, though. You're not very big on faith. Me either.

It just... is not for me.

Pretty good way to look at it, I guess!
Does that mean you don't believe in like, an afterlife or whatever?
