The fiery blue wall that surrounds Creation. On the wall's other side, where few Powers go, are the Lands Beyond Creation. Light on the Tree does not come from the sun, although a glowing yellow ball circles its midsection with a faintly resigned air. It comes instead from the Weirding Wall, a dizzying aura of liquid blue fire that is the edge of Creation. Things take on a strange color in that light, but light it remains, and with it any traveler can see their way. The Weirding Wall is shaped like a broad-bottomed cup. Its base forms the "ground" of Hell, so stained with blood that the Wall has gone indigo. The sides spread out around the tree, the distance from one side to the other growing as the Wall reaches upwards, until, a little bit below Serpenthane, it stops. Above that, there is only an infinite black sky, studded with the argent gleam of stars. There are Eight Paths through the Weirding Wall, counting the open top. They are rare and hard to find—some of them are hidden where even the Imperators cannot find them. |
