The Living Circle is a religion in Emelan. Temples include Winding Circle and others, usually with a "circle" theme, such as Wave Circle or Stone Circle temples. All the Circle temples are under the direction of the Mother Temple of the Living Circle, located in Gyongxe.

The followers of the Living Circle don't believe in an afterlife, instead they believe that they will be reborn.^[1]
