Quay (deity)

Quay was the moon god in the Weequay religion. He also served as the chief Weequay god, and shared his name with the moon of Sriluur, the Weequay homeworld, and was known for killing the warrior priestess Quay'va. The name for the Weequay species means "follower of Quay" in their native language. The Month of Plenty was a holy season where the Weequay honored the moon god and tracked the movement of Quay across the sky. Some Weequay took to worshiping a child's toy which generated random answers to questions posed to it, simply on the grounds that it was small, round and white and bore a passing resemblance to the moon. They believed that Quay inhabited each sphere and was replying to their questions.
