      Laborer—

      Work hard, play harder. Always win.

      ★One of six main positions within a realm, overseen by a Leader.

      ★Responsible for returning to the Land of the Harvest to convince humans to make covenant with their realm of choice.

      ★ML: Myriadian Laborer.

      ★TL: Troikan Laborer.

      Land of the Harvest, the—

      They cannot run. They cannot hide.

      ★Earth, home to humans.

      Leader—

      Only the strong survive.

      ★An assistant to a General.

      ★Females are known as “Madame,” males as “Sir.”

      ★Responsible for delegating assignments to all other sub-positions within the realm, while also meeting specific quotas (i.e., recruiting a certain number of souls).

      Many Ends—

      Where happiness goes to die and nightmares come to life.

      ★The realm where the Unsigned are imprisoned after Firstdeath.

      Messenger—

      Let the worlds know the horror that is Troika.

      ★One of six main positions within the realms, directly under Laborer.

      ★Responsible for teaching humans about the realms, protecting others from the enemy and chronicling exploits inside and outside the realm.

      Myriad—

      Autonomy, bliss, indulgence.

      ★The dark realm, ruled by the Prince of Ravens.

      ★Magical forests whisper enchanted tales, and secrets await you in every corner; self-indulgence is revered, and the party never stops; victors are adored and failures are abhorred; emotion always trumps logic.

      ★Motto: Might Equals Right.

      Penumbra—

      In the dark, the Light is easier to extinguish.

      ★A sentient darkness capable of draining Troikans of Light.

      ★Must be a Myriadian General to access more information.

      Realms—

      The only home that matters.

      ★Kingdoms in the Everlife: Myriad and Troika.

      ★Sub-realms: Many Ends and Troika’s widely disputed “Rest.”

      Rest, the—

      Deception cloaked in hope.

      ★Troikans believe a spirit enters into a state of absolute tranquility after Second-death, forever separated from the realms...with one exception.

      Resurrection, the—

      A promise without merit.

      ★Once every year, the people of Troika hold a vote, allowing one spirit to leave the Rest.

      ★A trick—there is no Rest.

      Second-death—

      Another end, another new beginning.

      ★When a spirit is drained of Lifeblood.

      ★The moment a spirit is Fused to another spirit(s) in order to return to the Land of the Harvest.

      ★Troikans foolishly believe a spirit enters into “the Rest.”

      Secondking—

      Bow or break.

      ★One of two sons of He Who Shall Not Be Named.

      ★Ambrosine, Prince of Ravens, rules Myriad.

      ★The Other Who Shall Not Be Named rules Troika.

      ★Ruler of a realm.

      Troika—

      Self-proclaimed leaders of justice, equality and freedom

      of choice.

      ★The realm of Light, ruled by the Other Who Shall Not Be Named.

      ★Supposedly untouched by gloom, where hard work isn’t an expectation but a way of life, equality isn’t an ideal but a standard and fear isn’t a treasured friend but a hated foe; “logic” always trumps emotion; people are governed by a strict set of rules, never allowed to play, and violators are punished.

      ★Motto: Light Brings Sight.

      Unsigned—

      Punishment rides the wings of the damned.

      ★A human who fails to make covenant with a realm before Firstdeath.

      ★Cursed to spend the Everlife inside Many Ends.

      Veil, the—

      Choose us and enter in.

      ★A doorway leading into one of the realms.

      ★The Veil of Midnight protects Myriad.

      ★The Veil of Wings protects Troika.
