The Church of Teros/Documents/The Teachings of Teros/Chapter 2

There are two planes of existance, and one of prophecy, the first, and lower of
the pleans of existance, is Clatharia, the plane of the mortals. It is in Clatharia
that we live our lives and fight our wars. All living things in latharia eventually
move on to the next plane, Dwilight, the plane of the gods. The plane of Dwilight
rarely intersects with the plane of Clatharia, but it is not unknown. What was called
Dark Tidings were merely aftereffects of The Battle of Vaalengard, in which the Dark
laid siege to the fortress of The Lady of Water, called The Tower Fortress, and the
undead invasions of Beluaterra were heretics attempting to escape from the Pit, only
to be sent back to the Pit by The Hunter's relentlessness. The Pit is where heretics
are sent, and where fallen followers of the Light in Dwilight end up - The Pit is
protected by The Hunter. There is a fourth, seperate plane, which some call Phantasmo.
It is a plane of prophecy, where all is fluid, and it is on this plane that Teros
communicates with his followers. In Dwilight Teros appears as a dark shrouded king,
and in Phantasmo and Clatharia he is The Serpent.
