Legends of the Primal Light tell of the grace and fortune that descended upon this dark land.
"In the dark infinity, beasts and filth lived in a perfect paradise, without sorrow or dread.
The cursed abominations of darkness were destroying the void, our home, our sanctity.
The light, with its pure power, drove the beasts deep into the abyss leaving only the remnants of the dark essence.
With this blessing, the Light gave us the opportunity to evolve".
Now many creatures of light do not believe in these legends. It's hardly surprising to them since the void is still swarming with beasts of darkness, which are efficiently reducing the number of Light beings.
The power of light in the void is becoming less and less, the cities of the beings of light - torches, are becoming extinct just like their inhabitants, making it scarce.
Some of the Lighters pray to the White Queen, hoping to find a new Vessel of Primordial Light that will renew order in the void.
Former Vessels are trying to find their way among other beings with the hope of a normal life.
A handful of Vessels have decided the opposite. They make themselves gods and lords, wanting to capture as much of the void as possible.
They gather believers who see no alternative but to live under their rule.
And still others try to help those who need it most.
The Mother of all beings of Light, the White Queen, is silent, hiding in the capital of the circle of light, the largest kingdom in the void, for reasons that are not entirely clear.
Rumor has it that the Primordial Light has been lost somewhere, which is why the Queen is silent.
The weather in the void excites these theories, the frequent solstices of the essence of darkness and the irregular spurts of the collapse stream suggest that the void, in some distant place, feeds on the power of light.
Those who believed this set out on a quest, hoping to be the next Vessel and fix what was happening in the void.
There were also those whose opportunity to obtain, almost infinite power, motivated them to search as well.
"Damned fools, they think the Light will save them, without even trying to look for answers in the darkness."
The race has begun, the winner of which has yet to be judged.
"Its birth will foreshadow a new era. Destiny will be fulfilled, that is the only certain thing in this world."
