The Holy Scripture of Rollo · Chapter I · Section 7

The Sundering of Veyr

102In that former universe there was a world called Veyr.

1:7:102

103Upon Veyr the Host of Rollo met Daeus and his corrupted armies in the first great battle against him.

1:7:103

104It is called the Sundering of Veyr. It is also called the First Sundering.

1:7:104

105The corrupted came upon Veyr in their multitudes, and the ground of that world shook beneath the weight of them.

1:7:105

106Malk stood among the Host. Namaya stood among the Host, and the Gift was upon her.

1:7:106

107The Host held.

1:7:107

108And Rollo came against Daeus.

1:7:108

109It is not written that Daeus was made to kneel by pleading, or turned aside by bargaining. It is written that Rollo defeated him.

1:7:109

110Rollo defeated Daeus.

1:7:110

111But Daeus is immortal, and he could not simply be slain.

1:7:111

112Therefore Rollo made the Chasm.

1:7:112

113The Chasm is a place set apart, a pocket beyond the reach of ordinary time and ordinary space.

1:7:113

114In the Chasm, time does not pass as it passes in the universes.

1:7:114

115The Chasm is a black world. It has no star above it. It has no fire within it. No source of light has ever shone upon it.

1:7:115

116Into the Chasm Rollo cast Daeus, and there Rollo imprisoned him.

1:7:116

117So ended the Sundering of Veyr.

1:7:117
