### The Start of it all

The God of the day and night fell in love with a mortal woman , a high priestess who roamed the earth. However little did he know that the woman was a priestess of the Abyssal Prince.

Their romance spammed for many centuries as they met in her dreams and wrote letters to each other. As night fell she made secret gifts for him and as the day arose she did her duties as the priestess of his worst enemy.

One fateful night an eclipse of the Abyssal moon and the sun of the earth occured and she knew that it would be day of honourable demise as she was raised to be a sacrifice that would allow on this day with the use of a ritual to allow all the princes which partook in it to be able to travel to different planes and be no longer bound.  And so it did happen as her dear love was late. Slowed greatly by the effect of the eclipse and weakened by being in his mortal flesh he saw her desipate into back starry dust into the night sky.

Furious he sealed the prince and his entire planet into an orb of celestial glass and send into switching orbit so no one could guess where he's be circulating next. However things were not fully safe as gateways into the orb existed as a fail safe. Thus he granted incredible warding and sealing powers and magic to two of his follows knowing the the princes had many of their own on earth.

### The two guardians

Zefnir was a paladin spell caster with immense knowledge of the earth and it's orbital powers and channeling. He was granted the power as the keeper of the Solis dimension , the only place which held weapons and spells that could conure the orb back into someone's hands.

Sarcer was an arch fey sourcer , he was a powerful ward user and devinator. He held powers which allowed him to shut and open the eclipsal gate. The  gate held the entrance into the orb directly and as such the only way to break out not only the prince but also to allow for another eclipsal of the abyss to occur.

Together they are the Keepers of the Grant Orb. And for many years they were not challenged until one night on the 50 year mark of the banishment a powerful mage that riveled their power forcefully created a gateway which he he knew would have killed him. This spilled blood in the name of the princes on earth and allowed them to briefly appear on earth yet again. However the keepers were not caught unready as they casted a spell in unison which did many things to ensure that he never returned.

It banished him back into the orb of sealing and trapped the orb inside a deep space orbit.

It also enfused their souls into the forest of the portal ways and cast a seal on the gateways so strong that no one could enter either Solis , the space ring of travel or acsees the portal plane which lead to the gate.

It also destroyed the gate of the orb itself.

This however was costly as their soul scattered into the wind as the spell was done before it was absorbed by a dark oak tree and a crystal inside a cavern which made the gateway staffs , as they were made , a conjuration puzzle was made deep in the forest of the dark feywilds relating to their powers.

These staffs were imbued with powers which were used by the next generations of keepers until the practice died as a result of confidence in the fact that they will never return.

## The Powers of the staff
