History:
The Order of the Sun Goddess traces its origins to a group of survivors who stumbled upon Kyoto Dreams generations ago. These survivors, facing the unforgiving challenges of the Backrooms, banded together to form a community centered around resilience and mutual protection. They discovered that the unique properties of Kyoto Dreams provided a semblance of safety compared to the other, more treacherous levels.
The early generations of the Order faced countless hardships, from navigating the surreal landscapes of Kyoto Dreams to fending off hostile entities that stumbled in from the outside. This era of adversity forged a deep sense of generational trauma within the community, as each successive generation carried the scars of the Backrooms. The survivors became a tight-knit family, passing down their stories and experiences to ensure the survival of their way of life.

Despite the challenges, the Order of the Sun Goddess persisted, adapting and evolving to thrive in the peculiar conditions of Kyoto Dreams. Over time, they developed unique skills and rituals to harness the mystical energy of the Backrooms. The community became a beacon of resilience, its members embodying the spirit of overcoming adversity with each passing generation.

It serves as a poignant reminder of their ability to rise above adversity and adapt to the ever-changing landscape of the Backrooms.

This oath emphasizes the paramount importance of protecting the community at any cost. Members swear to shield their fellow brethren from the dangers of the Backrooms and to uphold the values of unity and resilience.

The oath is embodied in a ceremonial artifact known as the "Sunblade", a symbol of the Order's commitment to protecting their way of life. This blade, passed down from leader to leader, represents the strength and sacrifice required to safeguard the community. It is said that the blade absorbs the resilience and determination of each generation, becoming a living testament to the Order's enduring spirit.
