During the two hundred years of the War of Faith, generations of missionaries repeatedly faced setbacks, and ultimately, developed a strategy incorporating traditional Northern beliefs to assist with evangelization.
The veneration of saints gradually replaced monotheism, new chapels were erected on the sites of old sacrificial grounds, and the pantheistic festivals were transformed into public church festivals.
Thanks to various "localization" strategies, the second-generation missionaries found great success.
Then... they were all declared heretical by the Pope of the Second Protection.
If in the previous two centuries, the struggle between pantheistic faith and the public church could still be described in the literal sense as "persuasion,"
then in the following two centuries, "the critique of weapons" completely replaced "the weapons of critique."
