A Comprehensive Guide to the Noctees: Noctees and Horsemasterists · 8:23pm Mar 9th, 2015
Many are the differences between the two religions, even with Alicornism as to state them all in a single work. Suffice to say that for a long time, Horsemasterists have seen Noctees as pagans, and in the case of the Ninghtmancers, demons. What of these beliefs survive nowadays in Equestria may be due to the general folklore rather than religious views themselves, because Equestria's official religion is Alicornism, and besides,other than the Luar and Voidstar Covens ponies and Noctees hadn't have almost any contact in the last millennium.
More accurate information can be extracted from the independent nations outside of Equestria, where Horsemasterism is still the predominant religion. Even though superstition is something to be expected on these places, and despite the fact that Equestrians are not welcomed among many foreign communities because of their nations' troubled history, one would be amazed as to what degree their beliefs have evolved into a wide set of understatements about the two religions.
Perhaps this is because we Equestrians have also learned to see Horsemasterists as zealous barbarians, or because the distancing between the two peoples have grown exponentially ever since the founding of Equestria. Whatever the means, what's worth knowing about actual Horsemasterists is that, unlike what we Equestrians think, Horsemasterist have developed to be a more tolerant society in matters of religion than us (even if their warlike tendencies may state otherwise).
In mythology, B'zerke and the two brothers have always shared a relationship of love-hate that has characterized them since their creation, sharing struggles between each other as well as joining forces to defeat a common enemy or a major threat. Its believed that this sentimental bond that joins the three entities is used to explain the relationship between the pony and Noctees kinds throughout history, but since there weren't any Noctees' myths available to exemplify it any further, to what degree the Horsemasterists' reference historical deeds are depicted in their beliefs is only inferred (for further detail of Horsemasterism beliefs read The Chronicles of the Horsemaster).
