The Occlusive Orb

When Driff was destroyed by the gods during the creation of the Divine Gate Wild Magic was the byproduct. This force of raw arcane improbability covered all of existence, the new force remained wild; flowing from constrained to turbulent. There was no control of the Wild Force, it was free in the cosmos and bonded itself to the two most opposing forces in existence, Order and Chaos. The lords of Order and Chaos played with this new force with glee. The Feywild was abnormally affected by this since the very nature of the fey swings so wildly from order to chaos. For years the Queens of the Seelie and Unseelie court tried to overcome these chaotic tides. Titania and Mab, in a one of a kind renewal of sisterly cooperation, devised a way to bring the wild forces of magic into control. Titania as a creature of order and Mab as a creature of Chaos called down their patrons. The first children of the Void; Ataxiak and Lexial, responded to their greatest champions in avatar form even while their larger essences remained unconstrained. The two queens forged a prison composed of sections of their own soul to bind the avatars. The avatars could not resist their own powers used against them. They were trapped within this orb of soul and magic was forced to comply in kind. The two queens held immense magic that would not be contained so they sent the magic to the Shadowfell first thinking the darkness would consume it but it merged with the shadow, they tried to dissipate It into the air but it formed the Great Rain. They tried to place it in the mind of Mortals but it broke free letting their thoughts become real. Ultimately they weren't able to contain Magic but they could tame it and buffer its wildness by sealing away the avatars of chaos and order so they also could not manipulate it. The Occlusive Orb was too dangerous for either queen to maintain ownership of so they agreed that it should be buried deep underground to the very core of the Feywild. Once the Orb was in place the fey wild itself changed. The orb created The gloaming Veil a tangible barrier between the summer lands and the lands of the gloaming as far as the lands extend and as high as the sky. Passing through the Gloaming Vale transitions one from the endless dusk of the Unseelie to the endless noon of the Seelie.
