BLIND ETERNITIES
"A crazy geometry ruled the blackness around them. Circles curved outward instead of inward. Pentagons had square corners. Every line bled itself into every other possible line. It was a chaos of potentiality, in which all things simultaneously did and did not exist.
The Corridors of Time, Angarak said into their minds. The Blind Eternities. The Bastard Plane. Whatever name you would call it, this is the nonsense in which all planes float. Everything that is derives from this place of things that are not."
-The War Laws, 254
overview
The Blind Eternities, the Realm Between, Purgatory, Limbo, First Circle of Hell is a term commonly used by Annunaki to refer to the space between planes in the galaxy which is filled with chaotic energies, mainly the Deep but also mana and temporal energy. Only gods and the most powerful beings can enter it and survive its tough environment, as it is a mysterious, timeless non-space inhospitable to life. It now serves as a home to the alien, enigmatic species known as the Emanations.
geographyThere are a thousand ways to perceive the Blind Eternities, every voyager sees it differently, depending on circumstance, form, and state of mind. Mithras projected his crux into the Blind Eternities saw it as a black, airless void in which a billion stars twinkled, and behind and beneath him blazed the world from which he had come. Iros Kell perceived it as a chaotic realm where the universes sparked by the Light and Deep bled together; a place of pitch black skies, twisting and filled with strange, conflicting powers. Countless worlds appear on the edge, seemingly close enough to touch and yet unimaginably far away. The Light intermingles with the Darkness, the primal uncontrolled forces of chaos and order, life and death, clash. The Blind Eternities, though separate from the physical universe, still has physical objects such as planets. It transcends all realities and is normally imperceptible to mortals.
