History
The Mortal Realms themselves were born from the destruction of another, older world destroyed by the forces of Chaos. [1a]
By the time of the Age of Sigmar, legends are rare that speak of that world and few of those that survived its destruction remember it clearly save for the Gods and the Slann. [1b]
Locations
- Lustria a land from where Lord Xen'phantica came from.[2b]
Survivors
The Realms contain not a few whose spirit, soul or essence was saved, was recreated or reborn in the new world - foremost amongst them is the God-King Sigmar. [1b]
