GUINECHEN
Mapuche Supreme God
Also known as Guineche, Guinechén, Guinemapun, Ngenechen
Creator God of Stability and Equilibrium
He’s the supreme deity trying to keep the world in order against the evil forces of Guecubu and Pillan. It’s a never-ending job and all he has time for.
Legend tells that there was once a great flood which threatened to wipe out all life on Earth. To preserve his creatures, Guinechen raised the mountains higher to give humans and animals more upper ground to escape to. That’s why mountains are so tall and pointy.
According to those in the know, both Guinechen and Guecubu are equally matched, and the never-ending battle of Good vs Evil is actually what keeps the Universe ticking over.
Should either side ever win, the whole fabric of the Cosmos would come crashing down like a badly-fixed curtain.
