I thought everything in the world was inside this Spike.
/// That's not wrong. Its first inhabitants were the Power Runes (the Four Polarities, the Eight Powers). They made children / had emanations / played with the Element Runes. Many new inhabitants lived in the Spike, until it became crowded. Then its inhabitants started coming out. First they settled on the slopes, then they went further and settled the universe. That's how the world became bigger.

Sounds like a giant spacecraft floating through space.
/// It's the giant mountain at the center of the World. In fact, it's the nail holding all realities together. There's nothing more grounded and physical than the spike. It's also the Mountain of Law, entirely made of Truestone.

This this Wakboth devil destroys it. Confused.
/// Chaos seeps back into the World, corrupts it and dissolves it. The Spike's explosion is its greatest "victory". It's almost the end of the world. But a shard of the Spike flies (two cubic miles) through the skies and crushes the devil at its is fighting Urox / Storm Bull. This shard is still there, in Prax. It's called the Block. It's a sliver of the Spike. A gazillion tons of Pure TrueStone.

How do you pronounce Wakboth?
/// You don't, unless you're a chaotic witch cackling and cursing. You don't even think about it. Many call it simply the devil. it has many names, in many cultures.
