They may even have two:
{QI'tu'}, sometimes translated "Paradise", is the mythological
source of all creation, hence its association with antiquity. (KGT 130)
Qui'Tu would appear to have the same place in Klingon mythology as the
Judeo-Christian concepts of Eden and Heaven. The difference between Qui'Tu
and Sto-Vo-Kor (the afterlife where Kahless waits for the honored dead) is
still not fully understood. (Cf. ST5 and "Rightful Heir" [TNG].) Aside
from the Kahless stories, we know relatively little about Klingon {wIchmey}
"myths, legends".
