In the beginning, the Ehnerbe was a perfect pearl, each ring a piece of a scintillating orb among a maelstrom of darkness. Everything lived in harmony and the Vethari walked among the mortals, teaching them how to touch the Reservoir and bend the Power to their will. They built great Walkways that connected the realms together and their various inhabitants freely mixed together. All was good for a time. Then, the Sin Wars erupted, shattering the Walkways, and consuming the realms in utter darkness. The orb was split into great rings, separating the realms from one another. At the eleventh hour, the humans arose from their long slumber and used the last of Mythaal’s light to return the realms back to how they were before. Although the darkness was extinguished, sin had left its mark and the realms were still divided from one another, with Mythaal lost in the Darkness.
