that is a very long story, and one that is difficult to explain.

~+~*she thought for a moment.*~+~

there was a time when there was absolutely nothing. no universe, no Eyer, nothing. Just a massive dark space in which nothing existed. however, because there was indeed nothing, the darkness had nowhere to go. a small portion of it folded in onto its self, and created a small light. the power of Dharma. reacting to it, Chaos was created. from the clash, the Neutral force was created. the three all took a third of the space that was available. from the center, where the forces were balanced, they spawned another force. that force was Verdandi- the incarnation of everything that was possible at the time, and everything that still is possible. she was there for a while before all three sides told her their story of creation. that was the first thing that she gained- knowledge. with that knowledge she made the distinction that she wanted to be a mother- hence why she is a female now. she gave birth to the first world, the Eyer. a sphere, the inside of which was endless. her own universe in which the other powers had no say. it was there that she gained the knowledge of magic and how to create it. so, she made another planet outside the only gate to her world. on that planet, she placed Treyvan's kind- the Gate Guardians. elsewhere, she began to create other races. Humans were among the first, but she had little joy for them. after she gave two of them, Life and Death, the power to start the cycle of rebirth, the Spirits and Souls came about. the effort to create that cycle caused a great expendature of energy, which spawned the Faerie Gods. the first race that could use magic. shortly after came other worlds, other races- as other worlds and races vanished. to keep things in order, Verdandi created several things. the Strings, the Wheel, the Spheres, and the Cloth. Strings for every single life form- weaving its self into a complex braid to tell different stories. when a being dies, its string falls and picks up again in the beings next life. if it does not have one, it burns. the Wheel shows the power of the races, all of them. the order of the bands show the oldest races, and which ones Verdandi favors. the speed in which the bands spin shows how they thrive- if they are doing well or not. if a band stops, the race is extinct and the band vanishes. the Spheres are the souls of the races created by her magic which can not truly vanish. they float about and make sure that nothing is amiss. a Cloth exists for every race. it weaves its self to tell the story of the race. when a race is extinct, it goes into the archive.

~+~*she smiled.*~+~

so, to put it as simply as possible..... the Eyer is the center for life where all new things emerge from. that is why those that know of it seek to enter it. Verdandi is very loving- she would not harm those inside without a VERY good reason. they could easily use the magic there to create their own races, destroy others, and gain godly powers. they could even throw Verdandi out if they so chose to.
