The Crumbling Epoch
Eryx’s divine realm is The Crumbling Epoch, a land where the echoes of all things that have ever fallen to ruin reside. Here, entire cities crumble and rebuild in an endless cycle of decay and renewal. The sky is fractured, split between the golden hues of dying suns and the empty void of a world already forgotten.
The ground shifts unpredictably, sometimes a vast desert of ash, other times a cracked and broken plain filled with the remnants of past civilizations—great halls where statues have turned to dust, once-thriving streets where ghostly echoes of people move in repetition, unaware that they are long dead. Structures do not remain intact for long; even the mightiest fortresses succumb to the will of entropy, their stones collapsing into rubble before the cycle begins again.
At the heart of this realm is The Hollow Spire, an immense and broken monolith that appears in different forms depending on the observer. To some, it is a magnificent tower on the brink of collapse; to others, it is already shattered, its ruins stretching endlessly into the horizon. This spire is said to contain the final truth of existence—an inscription upon its walls that, if fully understood, would unravel the entire cosmos.
To enter the Crumbling Epoch is to feel the weight of time itself. Mortals who linger too long find their bodies aging uncontrollably, their memories unraveling as past and present blur together. Time has no clear order here—one may witness the rise and fall of the same city a hundred times before taking another step.
