Vorst the Engine is the god that represents all solid physical matter and the warmth of the earth. He remains stoically silent and does not trouble himself with the affairs of others.

Story
Vorst is said to have a form of their own but is often depicted not as humanoid but rather as a large red and glowing gem that they are said to reside within. Vorst generates immense amounts of heat that flow from it. The heat forms into rock, that then forms into trees and forests. Eventually as one gets farther from Vorst you become colder and the energy of new life slows into the still cold of winter. Vorst is rumored to cause the seasons by pulsing once a year and those who revere them adorn themselves with precious gems if they can afford them.

Many of the other gods usually operate around Vorst who doesn't respond to the whims of others. While his followers pray to it they do not pray for a change of fortune or good favor. Rather they pray for its good health and give thanks for the gifts it gives to them with every day. Those who live on islands are thankful for their homes and those who mine thank Vorst for their bounty.
