These are a few words to know, among many to be said, unimportant as of now.
Dark Fields- This refers to a region, no matter the area size, that has been touched by Sephelos, and influenced by one of its many Hiers.
Sephelos- This refers to the Else aside from the world. A place foul-born during the ages of existence. A reflection of the world's darkest and twisted aspects. It bares home to the Hiers and those alike.
Hiers- This refers to the beings beholden to Sepheloth, and at times projecting themselves by the will of Sephelos unto the world of man, creating erratic fields of the Else's own body. These Hiers come in many forms, some even resembling the anatomy of man.

These are a few terms to understand as the story flows. I am not an exposition type of person, but I can be swayed in some situations of interest. And, unfortunately, sometimes I can contradict my own anti-exposition take, to which I say to you, whatever happens, happens.
Enjoy...
