Now that we have that ridiculous title out of the way, is there any sort of deity the Serra believe in? And if there is, is there a particular way to honor that deity? And are there any buildings or rituals that should be noted? Just curious.
I was pondering this earlier! 
They don't have a strict religion, but they honor the spirits of the natural world and their ancestors.
Ancestor worship:
Tokens of past generations like jewelry, combs, etc. are highly revered and are generally used on days of importance. (For instance, a Serra might brush their hair with an old family comb on the day they're going to attend a Kyrka hatching.) Serra will sometimes find a quiet place to pray to their ancestors when they need guidance. A small offering of food may be left out in an attempt to please the ancestors.
Nature spirit worship:
Some Serra are more serious than others regarding the nature spirits. Serra believe all natural things (people, animals, trees, rocks, dirt, mountains, etc. but not houses or boats) have spirits. These natural things are still used (trees are chopped down for lumber, animals are slaughtered for food), but only if the Serra honors the spirit in question.
Both of these ideas are pretty loosely defined, so feel free to make up stuff that makes sense.

Oh, and though the religion isn't strictly defined, there are particular people called shamans who help people commune with the nature spirits and ancestor spirits. Serra may go to a shaman also for help with reading fortunes, healing the sick (beyond physical ailments), and the like.
