Anratha

Anratha is Paradise, lying below Heaven, but above Creation. Anratha formed around Asur as he emerged from Heaven, and he named it Paradise, the Garden of the Gods. At first, it was a garden to glorify the Pancreator, but in time Asur forgot he ever had an origin, and came to regard Paradise as the totality of existence, eternal and unchanging. Many gods dwelled in Paradise, though all obeyed Asur. Countless angelic spirits, the giants greatest among them, served the gods, though Asur was the final authority on all matters. When Asur was slain by his brother, the light left Paradise, and the only way to prevent the entire realm being swallowed in darkness was to create a temporary sun. Bhelor set herself aflame and became the Sun of Sacrifice. Vasht, guardian of Paradise, went to watch the gates into Anratha, and though gods have since left the realm, Vasht only allows those who have recovered a piece of Asur to enter Paradise again. Anratha is now hidden and unknown, and it will only be open to all when Asur has been reborn, and the New Sun rises.
