We learn the collapsible from the comic fairly soon - as readers. But as a /tg/ dood you might be ''playing'' this thing... so the collapsible isn't for you.

To hear the [[Human]]s (in issue #5) tell it: "the storm god Borl made the world and Freyth was his only son ... Freyth hunted Naga into the Underworld". To hear the [[Elf|Aelva]] tell it (issue #8), "the Spirit Mother sang the world into being" - as far as she could. Eastward, the Void resisted and, between Her song and the Void, the Karkarok arose.

These races agree on one thing: the Black Stair was where the world and the Void hit their stalemate. Neither race ventures that far east. Unless . . .

'''The Book Of Ages''' [spoilers!!]
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
The following draws from Issue #5. Which isn't #1, so isn't for first-time players.

First came Ang Luthia, Author Of All Things. For Its children was imposed one rule - Thermodynamics. If a god is to create life, that god must sacrifice segments of His/Her/Its life. Yes, they're gendered. Deal with it.

The second-order gods take the honorific prefix "Mol", Ang Luthia's flag for the genitive. Mol Anwe ("Of Light") was the founder of magic and music. Mol Uvanya ("Of What Groweth") was the goddess of nature which, here (as opposed to [[Tolkien|Tollers]]), is antithesis to magic. Then there's Mol Kalakto (Of Creation) god of the forge and the [[Underdark|Abyssal Realm]], and Mol Rangma ("Of Flame") born of fire. Mol Choresh ("Of Knowledge/Riddles") was "[[derp|god of knowledge and of riddles]]", and composed the Book Of Ages.

The Book of Ages' lore makes up the exposition-dump here. It is stored in the Pinnacle and first accessed by the "heroes". Who ain't tellin'.

As typical of origin-myths, then ensued a titanomachy. Mol Anwe passed beyond the Black Stair thence brought a Mol Uhltep - "Of Void". This turned out to be ... a mistake. Ang Luthia and Mol Uhltep did the [[Cold War|M.A.D. thing]], at the Stair. As typical of edgelord post-Nietzsche fiction those gods descendate of Ang Luthia are mostly dead now too.

But there's one god left who lives! That'd be (gulp) Mol Uhltep.

Whilst we have your attention, a race of "Fey" exist. They're magical. Humans are wholly unaware of them and the Aelvan tribes know little more than that.
