The Earth was destroyed.

Four worlds were created out of the ruin. Worlds for

ourselves and the mensch: Air, Fire, Stone, Water.

Four Gates connect each world to the other: Arianus to

Pryan to Abarrach to Chelestra.

A house of correction was built for our enemies: the

Labyrinth.

The Labyrinth is connected to the other worlds through

the Fifth Gate: the Nexus.

The Sixth Gate is the center, permits entry: the Vortex.

And all was accomplished through the Seventh Gate.

The end was the beginning.
