A particular Realm and its associated Warren or Hold had its own unique Throne - or some other manifestation of its "centre of power": e.g., its node; its locus; its heart; or its whatever.Deadhouse Landing, Chapter 14, US TPB p.265 An entity (or entities) who was able to control the appropriate centre of power of a Realm might subsequently become an Ascendant and/or be worshiped as a god.
