History
The Allpoints was as an important nexus of travel that was used in the Age of Myth.[1a]
Knowning that the Allpoints was key to conquering the Mortal Realms, Archaon attacked all the All-Gates simultaneously. Sigmar armies managed to hold out the ferocity of chaos, failing only when Nagash side fell. After Archaon's conquest he created a gateway to the Realm of Chaos within and renamed it the Eightpoints.[2]
It was after this conquest that Archaon raised the Varanspire.[2b]
Realizing Sigmar's plan to reconquer the Realmgates, Archaon decided to reinforce the Eightpoints.[2]
While the Realmgate Wars were happening, Sigmar's gaze was constantly drawn to the Allpoints where one of his greatest foes resided, the Everchosen.[3]
Locations
- Varanspire: Archaon's main stronghold in the Mortal Realms.[2b]
- Bloodwind Spoil: is a heavily populated stretch of the Eightpoints between two highways leading to Chamon and Ghur.[4]
All-gates
- Brimfire Gate: The Arcway of Aqshy. Closed by the Stormcast Eternals.[1]
