History
Age of Myth
The Cythai first discovered the Whirlways beneath the Gealus Ocean, after fleeing from the wrath of Teclis their creator god. They seen discovered that these whirlpool-like realmgates led to other oceans, seas, and lakes found all across the Mortal Realms. When the Cythai divided into six factions, they travelled through these Whirlways and established nations in the seas and lakes they found on the other sides.[1a]
Age of Sigmar
The forces of Tzeentch tamper with many Whirlways that the Idoneth Deepkin have come to rely on. Some of the affected portals transform into vortexes that spew forth daemons, while others become doompools.[1b]
