=== The Doors ===This is the list of all the Doors in this Fansus:{||-| ''The Wyrmswound'', also known as the 'Sunspot-Scar', the 'Blackest Gate', and the 'Corona Door', was once the highest Door in the House of the Wyrm that adepts used to enter to become Long. It was created when the Elderwyrm descended from the Glory, as a scar left on its surface. The Wyrm plucked it from the Glory and placed it at the highest point of the Mansus, so that the descending Mother Songbird would not be burned by the Glory on her way out. Some now-dead Hour once built a beautiful obsidian doorframe for it, but it was destroyed in the Collision, and now they Blackest Door dances with the Twin Glories, ever fleeting as it jitters and twitches far above the surface of the Mansus. It is difficult to reach, and dangerous to be around, which is the reason why it's the less used of the two Doors to the Glory ''The Whispering Way'', sometimes known as the 'Door of Harmonies' or the 'Glass-Tongued Gate', is the highest point at which mortals could enter the Wyrm's House. It was sometimes played by Her Prescient Serenity, who could commune with its concentric rings of glass to awaken harmonies that could be hears throughout the entire Mansus, though Her Scarred Serenity lacks both the time and the energy to play it nowadays.|-| ''The Beautiful Gate'', also known as the 'Royal Door' or 'Holy Door', was the highest Door of the King's House that adepts used to enter in order to become Long. In an act that foreshadowed his future apathy, the Listless King left it slightly ajar when he passed through it when descending from the Glory. It is coated in brass and engraved with depictions of the King's greatest acts, but in recent times the Collision and the passing Wyrmswound have caused this brass coating to begin to flake, revealing an older surface with strange engravings carved into an unknown metal. Each of the double doors depicts a royal figure that is clearly not the Listless King, though its true identity is unknown. On one of the doors, it holds a lantern. On the other, it wields a knife. The Royal Door has became unreliable in recent times, as the Glories are not always close enough to facilitate the process of ascending to Long. Still, it remains more popular than the unstable Blackest Door|-

===The Collision===
Independently from who did it, the causalities of this event were fatal: multiple Hours were incredibly wounded, some Hours even died, and quite a lot rose in the next few years after. But first and foremost, the skin of the world was, if only temporarily, completely torn off, breaking down the barrier between realities, and melting the two Histories, one for each Mansus, together, in addition to power of the Hours bleeding into the Wake. The effects of the latter are recorded below, though no one really remembers what happened, probably for the better.
