Meanwhile, in the Saxonic African colony of Cape, on the 12th of September the Viceroy Puyi converted in return for PastelAnt's revoking of his claim to the title of minister within the Saxon Kingdom, which therefore introduced the faith to Africa- though this over a month since the colony joined in the first place. Such inhabitants in it were less quick to convert, and about half the population stuck to their old animist ways.

===== ''The first Shrekist Emus'' =====
On the 26th of September, Lake Eyre joined Saxony under a protectorship -likewise to Cape and SSRBC- and promptly converted. This introduced Shrekism to Australia, and the amount of followers increased to above one-hundred.

===== ''Prague and Lorraine'' =====
===== ''Prague and Lorraine'' =====
As Saxony spread into Lorraine and Prague during October 2021 , the religion was carried there. Though Alsace-Lorraine stayed quite zealous and majority Shrekist, Shrekism struggled to spread into Prague due to the deep Catholic tradition. Approximately 30-50% converted and co-existed with the Christians in a non-hostile fellowship that caused a unique art style that thrived during that month.

A month later, the Zeont people migrated to an area in Southern France and brought the Shrekist faith with them.
 
===== ''Adoption by the Veche'' =====

Tictachead69 migrated Eastwards to the slavic lands and proclaimed the Kievan Rus under the vassalation of Saxony and became the Grand Prince on the 4th December, 2021. Shrekism was brought but the distance and the difference between the Saxon and Rus people caused significant changes in liturgy: such as the practice of Shrek worship in the Novgorod-Kyiv Russian dialect ''(rather than Waddenish or Frisian)'', and also the theological idea of низкий лорд ''(that Shrek remained also partly mortal after celestial coronation, which allowed him to descend to Earth to give his teachings in a perpetual spiritual duel-form)'' rather than the traditional transition from mortal to immortal. Other differences in art and practices and even clergical names caused a shift between the traditional Saxon faith and the Kievan clergy which led to the denomination of Kyiv Shrekism. 
 
=== <u>After Stefanism</u> ===
After the formation of the Stephanic Church, Shrekism was still tolerated due to the faith's ideals in tolerating other religions and allowing them to convert at their own accord. All though the King of Saxony adopted the religion, most followers remained Shrekist, Synist or Secular. The numbers, however, did decline but much of it's tradition continues to this day.
 
The Kievan Rus remained Shrekist after being given to the Kingdom of Estonia.

=== The Epic of Shrek ===
As told in the 3000-line Frisian/Waddenish saga of the [https://earthmc.fandom.com/wiki/The_Epic_of_Shrek Epic of Shrek], before our time, Gods clashed and fought over their different forms of life and worlds of their creation, which they each thought were superior, as thousands of beings across the multiverse were brutally eliminated in their terror and constant quarreling. The saga tells how one great and just God, Shrek, defeated them all with his diplomacy and might and brought them to his side -which was no small feat.

After all these lesser Gods were thoroughly defeated, he fought with the short yet immensely powerful and evil Farquaad of the Twin-Vagabond and the Consumer of Darkness ''(the devil/satan figure)'', before winning an awesome strategic victory where all the other Gods sang or played trumpets and cymbals in his glory while the Princess Feona was finally rescued. He was anointed and crowned the Omnipotent Grand Prince of the Universe, and the good, reformed lesser Gods were turned into the Knights of Light -an order of fair angels devoted to Shrek and his wisdom. However, he feared other mortal beings may follow the same process as the reformed lesser Gods had before, as all the species were created in their ideal images. So, he made the Knights of Light merge or the realms into a grand celestial bowl of beans. He graciously gave thanks, and ate it. Soon, he thunderously farted out the three new realms - the Higher ''(Hejiriesc)'' , the Middle ''(Madoelriesc)'' and the Lower ''(Deofilriesc)''. He casted Farquaad the evil one into the Lower to rot, and all the combined species into the middle, and gave them other new fair species, and horrible hostile mobs to create literally the moderate world -not too good, not too bad.
