Celestial Plane

Born from darkness, this plane was originally created by the birth of the first star and the positive energy that it radiated protecting itself from the dark. After the event of First Lights Grave, the plane blossomed into the vast domain now known as the Celestial Plane, rivaled in size and power only by the Eternal Plane.

Home to several realms, domains, and worlds. Most of them associated with divinities or other virtuous ideals.

Also the home of the seven heralds of light, the Songbirds.

The Celestial Plane
Following the creation of the Prism, light which could not see the darkness that had attacked it, continued existence peacefully now separated from its would be aggressor. However it grew lonely in its isolated realm and began to conjure beings made of luminous matter to keep it company. First light created the Guardians to defend the everlasting light and the innocent life that could be born from it. Secondly she created the Songbirds, beings of ideal and virtue that brought with their creation a surge in the positive energies that flowed through the Prism.

The Celestial Plane, home to several divinities and domains from countless worlds, prospered during this long period of isolated. It would not be until the spark of life lit and the full Spectral Plane ignited into reality that the Celestial Plane made contact with another plane. Sending out the Guardians to each of the Spectral Planes to establish bastions in the strange new planes now spread throughout the prism. This established a divine link to several of the planes, including the Material Plane, however this link would be short lived as the cosmos became crowded with domains and powers.

The Spectral Wars
Though the Spectral Wars began for several different reasons it is heavily considered to have all been in the effort of a singular goal: Darkness attempting to smother light. The Spectral Wars would be the longest conflict this dimension would ever know, bringing unimaginable destruction to several stars and domains. Soon as the lights in the night sky began to be smothered one-by-one by the Eternals, light began to fade for the first time in its celestial domain.

Too weak to give birth to new stars the gods that once lit up the night sky began to shine fewer and fewer. Finally in an act that would end the Spectral Wars darkness and light made what would be called the Pact at Dawn, each agreeing to end the conflict so long as the Material Plane, the realms of mortals, maintained a perfect balance of darkness and light.

The Fallen
Following the Pact at Dawn, the Celestial Plane had suffered catastrophic damages including the death of most the Guardians, several Songbirds, and the severely limited ability to birth new stars compared to before the war. It was at this moment when one of the surviving Songbirds turned upon light as it was cast out of the celestial plane going on to influence the Material Planes as the Eighth Elder.

Where there were once many, now are only few. Light retreated away from even its Songbirds as no other interaction with its consciousness was ever recorded. The remaining Songbirds, once eight but now seven, recovered or were reborn and fortified their plane. The Celestial Plane would remain a shadow of its former glory until it would be eventually restored in the Age of Mortals.

The Songbirds
The Songbirds were created by light as avatars to the virtues of life, born to both learn and teach they became known as heralds or divinities in the material worlds they would helped shape and cultivate. They could take on many different forms but they always represented a core virtue: Kylidel and Emilia would be defeated during the Spectral Wars leading to the Fall of Forgiveness and Duet's Descent.
