In Zargayusism, there were two central deities, Graef and Hayweh. These two beings were said to be contrasting forces in the universe. Hayweh was said to be responsible for all that was good and pleasant. While Graef was said to be the cause of all suffering and pain. According to legend, Graef and Hayweh cast lots to see who would be given the right to create the universe. Graef won and created a world filled with pain and misery.
