When the ancient Spire of Dionamus was found and activated by mortals,
the nexuses of power throughout the land reacted violently. Unbeknownst
to mortal and god alike, this phenonema also occurred within the cities
of Gaudiguch and Hallifax which were lost in time and space during the
Taint Wars. Eventually, this event heralded the return of the lost
cities into the current time stream. Unfortunately, the Elder God
Elostian mistook the phenomena for a possible escape attempt by the
Souless God Zenos. The recently returned Elder Goddess Kalikai made an
attempt to "rescue" Elostian which resulted in the prison of Zenos being
compromised. It took the rest of the Elder Gods, led by the Creatrix
Estarra, to reinforce the prison of Zenos, but it was too late to
prevent the weakening of the Nine Great Seals. As stated in the
histories under Coming of Estarra, when the Nine Seals are weakened,
there is only one way that they can be recharged: through the ascension
of a mortal!
