The Third Tenet
Iblis after Iblis is the Door to the Shadow of the Worlds.
In the Third Rift, Iblis embarks on a struggle to potentiate the borders between, in, and among actual and possible worlds. Iblis incites the exile of humanity from Eden and becomes the foundation for a potential threat of its extinction.
Many worlds lay cleft or sealed at his urging in the fog of prehistory.
In this lies the closing of borders to places and the ending of times.
Beyond a veil of divinity, Iblis after Iblis fells humanity with extirpation.
