The Laws of Tariek Rough Collection

The way the folk have measured time, for one. 28 day months, thirteen of them, the days each 24 hours.

Magic has....dangerous potential consequences due to the Void.

The Gods are very real, and though they will gift their followers with flashes of their divine grace, they are known to be viciously demanding, and can be quite finicky.

Cosmology

The world was forged by the Primordial Elemental Beings, the first Children of the Mother of all things, the progenitors of the Seven Ascended Races, however....Mother did not wish her children to be lonely. So she tried to forge each one a companion. However in doing so, in trying to make her children the perfect companions, not the same, but their opposite and compliment in all things. However in doing so....she tried to hard. Even a Goddess is not infallible. She drew to much power not just from reality, but from the places beyond.....and in doing so....she woke...things. Things more ancient than any memory but her own, things she had sealed with her husband, the Cycle Father. The Gibbering Eternals, madness and evil. These things woke from their slumber, and tainted Mother's new creations. The Primordials, longing for companionship, did not see until it was too late, and the world they had been building was tainted within. Children of Madness, Beasts of the Darkness. And so a cataclysmic war that tore the world asunder. The Primordials disappeared, the Gibbering Eternals were sealed into the Void, however they could still project their forces. Now the world moves forward, such times long forgotten, and history has become myth.
