-… The Pearl is clearly visible from here.
- I’ve read about that in various creation myths! Does it really exist?
- Yes. It was where Anu and the Dragon fought their eternal battles. We angels have a theory that the Pearl got mostly shattered by their final clash, but vestiges of it still remain, in the form of those celestial strings.
- I see. Do you normally get this view back at your home?
- My… home? No, it is never dark in the Silver City, the sun does not set. Those that wish to study the stars must move to different realms. None, however… seem to be so close to the edge as Sanctuary is.
- I have always believed as a kid that our creator put this world here because of this nightly view. Maybe that really was his reason then, yeah?
- I would not put it past him. Inarius always had a flare for unnecessary drama and grandiose.
- I’d say it paid off in this case, truly.
-… Yes. Truly.
oooOOOooo
One day. One day I will figure out how the realms are situated among each other and how the goddamn Pearl works. I know there are like dimensions and "plains of existence" involved and I'm probably on a Mission Impossible here, but Anu be my witness, I'll try! But for now, I'll leave it to Malthael and Abd to philosophize about this.
Did you know the Pearl was actually a thing in the Creation lore of Diablo? I don't blame you if you didn't.
