Historically speaking, smashing statues and suppressing writings has always worked out fantastically for squashing ideas. Particularly ones that had been spreading for over a century. It's also worth noting that the modern Kaldar has had a solid 40 years or so of being immersed in cultures that follow the 13.

It's safe to say that Kaldar religion has had some turbulent times, and there is far from one universally agreed on truth for the race.

While I agree there is a frustrating lack of IC knowledge right now -- that is something I am working to correct. It's just going to take some time.

In the meanwhile, there's several things that are readily apparent IC that you might consider when informing your RP.

1) Worship of the 13 is common among Kaldar. Both before and after the migration.
2) Worship of the 10 can still be found among the Kaldar.
3) Kaldaran worship of the 13 may not look the same as the main stream worship of the 13, however in the last 40 years these differences have faded somewhat. Details on that to come.
4) The Gorbesh still follow the 10.
5) Reliable accounts of Kaldar who worship the 13 gaining favor are plentiful.
6) There are no verifiable accounts of Kaldar who worship the 10 gaining favor, dating back at least as far as the migration. While this fact is troubling to many Kaldar who worship the 10 still, it should be noted both that I said verifiable accounts and that the vast majority of the masses never find favor with the gods, be it the 10 or the 13.
