Only in Virikai, under the ever watchful guardianship of the Duskwood are there portals of light that occasionally defenestrate new beings, materia, and occasionally threats into The Shade. The other three regions of The Shade- Callisti, Anwuru, and Neleus- are swathed in stars and moons of the night, only seeing the glimmering portals of Virikai in the distance.

In an effort to keep peace, a group of eldersfrom every faction combined their talents to erase the origins of their conflict and force the realm into a deep sleep.
