"Mithras was a pagan idea, a so-called god beloved by the ancient soldiers that built this city"
―Erke describing Mithras to Eivor, 873.[src]-[m]
A relief of Mithras slaying the bull

Mithras was a god worshipped by ancient Romans as a form of Roman paganism, often depicted with the image of him slaying a bull.

The cult of Mithras had a prominent presence in the city of Londinium, where they had a temple dedicated to him. After being abandoned for numerous centuries following the Roman exodus of Britannia in the 5th century, the temple was subsequently used by a faction of the Order of the Ancients, who worshipped the god and practiced its beliefs.[1]
