We call upon the King of Keys,
... who bears many gifts,
... who keeps eternal,
... who smiles at lies
The King of keys worship (and worshippers) can be divided into two categories.
Ambition:
The King if Keys is worshipped more for what he offers then what he represents. Those that strive for things they should not have or have access to yet implore the King of Keys in their ordeals. The thief who wants to crack the safe, the explorer who wants access to the tomb, the adept that wants to take a shortcut to a deeper understanding of the lore. He is also worshipped by those who want to rise above their station, get promoted, take over leadership. The final aspect of this is those that have things they want to keep, locking away stolen goods, squirreling away secrets.
Safety: The king is also worshipped by the mournful and the shameful. Throughout the ages since the Kings ascension, people have been burying their loved ones in a locked chest filled with valuables, offering them up for the King of Keys to claim. Everyone knows The Empty Hour keeps what his eternal, and wherever his treasure hordes me be, it is probably better there in to descend into nowhere. Otherwise, there is safety in forgetting and losing. Those that worry about things they know or have done offer it up to the key to keep it safe from others or themselves.
===Cult===
promote a disciple: at thresholds, a blade can be a key. The eyes that open this night may never be closed.
promote a Key: at dusk, my disciple is brickled bricked into a room without doors. By dawn, they will kneel before me once more.
