- The 3 worlds were so wrecked by the greater darkness that mortals could no longer live in them and immortals could remain in their home only by consenting to maintaining their existence unchanged and unchanging. Mortals (and many immortals) migrate to the mystical world, which becomes the mortal or centre world. The 3 worlds become the otherworlds.
