<<
 The Vithelan mythology presented in Myth of the Month a 

 while ago mentions the three measures: Time, Space and
 Consciousness. These are continuous spectra, with the
 high gods' world at the eternal, changeless, transcendent
 end and the fleeting, ever-fluctuating underworld of  antigods, illusions and hells at the other end.
>>

My own Central Genertelan interpretation of these 'truths' would be to loop the spectra into a circle with E.C.T. on one side and the F.E.F.U.o.A.I.a.H on the other. Chaos thingies are then coming around this circle coming from eternal (the void) and getting meshed up in the world (which they hate) which is why they are so miserable. Orlanthi and Westerners past this, tied up in the worlds of illusion and don't even realise what they're missing (ECT) , while the enlightened East are striving for E.C.T. out of the material world. The Lunars of course, understanding cyclical systems, are going backwards around the circle.

PS I'm sure a diagram would make this clearer. Perhaps it wouldn't.
