12.17.18 The City of Nur

The depths of Origin. Towering spires of supernal majesty. The light of
unrivalled stars upon cosmic eventides. All this and more lies waiting in Nur,
the City Forever, lost home of the Aldar. Built by the Firstborn of the Gods
in a time long since lost to memory for all but the Eldest Divinities, the
seven rings of the Cosmic Cycle rotate endlessly about the blazing empyreal
currents of Saar-elan, silhouetted by the magnificence of Starfall and the 
River Eternity.

Abandoned in the years following the Chaos Wars and the departure of the Aldar
to a distant plane, nevermore to be troubled by mortal or God under Logosian
Decree, Nur was left to its own devices, eternally awaiting the return of 
absent masters. Led inside its gates shortly after the fall of the Seleucarian
Empire, for centuries did the angelic cohort of Zafikel experiment within Nur,
profaning its ancient strictures in their attempts to turn Saar-elan to their
own purposes. When events transpired to conjure the fall of  through the eaves
of Yggdrasil in the year 788 AF, the resultant Unmaking permitted adventurers
to at last penetrate its sacred boundaries, witnessing for themselves the
wonders lost with the departure of the Eldest Race.
