Reality is a lie. It’s a false construct made up of deception, human folly, and hubris. Once, the world wasn’t like this, but now? Now it might be doomed to remain forever in ignorance. The Abyss lurks outside, a place devoid of Wisdom or magic, swallowing chunks of existence one bite at a time and spawning entities that find their way back into the Fallen World… either on their own or summoned by some foolish would-be occultist. Its maw is all-consuming, an inevitable coming darkness.

And yet, on the other side of it, are the Supernal Realms and the five watchtowers if legend is true. From there, constructed by the ancient Oracles, they ring with Truth like tuning forks. Their vibrations cross the Abyss, the unseen realms, and penetrate into the world we know. Most people can’t sense these vibrations, these emanations, and deny their existence subconsciously as impossible. Yet a select few, a very rare minority of the populace, feels those invisible waves buffeting them to their very soul. A soul and watchtower enter harmony, synchronizing, they find sympathy along the same wave length and that soul is transported across the gulf. There, the humans name is signed alongside all those who came before him, and in that moment the human ceases to be asleep.

And they Awaken.
