Since the Order of the Ancient existed at the same time at the cult, it's more appropirate to say they were they were contemporary, albeit unrelated, counterparts of the OoA.

The Cult of Kosmos was a secretive organization operating throughout ancient Greece and the surrounding regions, who sought to achieve peace for Greece under their control and obtain ancient artifacts from the First Civilization.[1]

The Cult notably supported King Xerxes I of Persia during his conquests. Several decades later, they orchestrated the Peloponnesian War in an effort to achieve control of Greece amidst the conflict of the country's two most notable city-states. This conflict put them at odds with the mercenary Kassandra, who fought to stop the cult's plans for control over Greece.[1] The cult also operated in branches, which each branch led by a individual dubbed as the Sage.[2] This dub does not have any coorelation with Sages, the reincarnations of Juno's husband Aita

The Cult of Kosmos was one of several groups that would later develop into the Order of the Ancients, who in turn will develop into the Order of the Knights Templar.[1]

History

Agamemnon founded the Cult of Kosmos during the Trojan War and united all of Greece.

Foundations and Beliefs

Much like their future incarnations, the Order of the Ancients and the Templar Order, the Cult of Kosmos are not at all polytheistic and have a deistic belief system. According to Aspasia, the nations in Greece were already chaotic and the Cult wanted to use a controlled war so as to create a clean slate so as to establish an orderly and unified Greek Nation, one where there will be no more violence and the people will move towards a more rational and developing society, which will be build by the people for the people. Aspasia mentioned this would require a very wise and philosophical king.

Some members of the Cult did however idolize and worship the people with the Bloodline, truly believing them to be actual demigods, such as Deimos. The members of the Cult had soon grown chaotic and greedy and used the Chaos to earn massive amounts of profits and political power.
