The Mythology of Eilean Reul
In ancient scrolls the illiri lived in a paradise they called Aradunea, which translated in the mortal avanyar tongue as "Land of the Creator." Their world was Eilean Reul, "Island among the Stars," and it was indeed a great blue and white jewel that glittered in the heavens.
But it was not the first....

I'm running naked in the snow. Ahead of me is a tiny cottage. When I reach it, I see their tracks in the light wisps of white around the door.
They are here.
I step inside and instantly I can hear them. A wave of terror washes through me—goose bumps cover me, my hair stands on end. I can’t breathe.

Do you see the majestic rainbow as it stretches across the sky?
Those seven colors, clear and bright, remind us, you and I,
That seven keys will one day come, each with a precious jewel,
To unlock the Messiah’s dungeon, finally ending the Reaper's rule.
The Reaper sprang out of Hell's dark pit to gather his mighty power.
In seven wands he placed his strength. In his darkest hour,
His wands mastered the elements; from them they gained control,
And captured the Son of Aradun to be locked in the Well of Souls.
Seven different times, to aid our plight, He escaped from the Reaper's jail.
