Huit'zi'lichial, originally Xiti'ism, is a duotheistic religion that formed under the teachings of the Prophet Yarep in the Chichimec indigenous region of Mesoamerica.

History
Although originally founded as an interpretation of Purépechan polytheism by the Philosopher Izel, Xiti'ism would be founded as a non-material following within the polytheistic religion, with an emphasis on

group would splinter their ideas off of the Purépechan pantheon after being persecuted in the late stages of the Tarascan-Xalisco War, resulting in the martyr of Izel and many of his early followers. In the following decades, members of the Huit'zi'lichial would be forced to migrate into the nomadic territory of the Chichimec peoples. Although many of the warlords in northern Chichimec would refuse to provide lands to worship, the southern warrior-general Zolin would provide them a court to express their worship and for their continued livlihood. 1360 is designated as the birth year of the Prophet Yarep, whom would grow up in the vicinity of Zolin and the practicians of Huit'zi'lichial. By 1380, the Prophet Yarep would begin preaching his interpretation of Huit'zi'lichial, stating that there are no dieties among the stars, but rather, the dieties are within the soul, being the creation diety Cuerauáperi and it's counter-part, the death diety Auicamine. Although initially Yarep was to be executed for his beliefs, the warrior-general Zolin would permit that Yarep shall remain alive and worship, himself curious as to Yarep's beliefs.

In 1384, Zolin's daughter Tlalal would marry the Prophet Yarep, establishing the House of Cōātl. Yarep would continue his teachings, and after performing a number of 'miracles' for the people in the name of faith towards Cuerauáperi, Tlalal would birth their only son, Atal, in 1385. The Prophet Yarep would die at the onset of the collapse of the Tarascan Empire, leaving the House of Cōātl under the leadership of warrior-general Yayauhnen until Atal was of age. While Tlalal and numerous philosophers would raise the young Atal, the warrior-general Yayauhnen would declare the first Huit'xi against the Xalisco Kingdom in 1394, leading a successful military campaign across all of northern Mexico, founding and expanding the State of Xaroyaca. By 1401, Yayauhnen would be killed in the Battle of the Jaguars, leaving the throne to the now older Atal, whom would go on to lead a number of successful military conquests of Mesoamerica, as well as establish the modern Xaroyacan Theocracy.
