Leylines and Leygates

Leylines are rather like the map of the feng shui of the planet. They hold power and energy. Where they intersect there are leygates, which allow teleportation to another leygate. Usually beings with magical power, such as Sorcerers, Wizards, Witches, Magicians, and Alchemists use them. When the Four Swords of Power are used together, they create a leygate. Often leygates are used specifically to travel from one Shadowrealm to another. Shadowrealms are the homes of the Elders. Hades, Tartarus, Asgard, and Niflheim are a few of them. The Elders are an ancient race, that were around before humans. Some of them are Anubis, Iris, Mars, Odin, Persephone, Prometheus, and Quetzalcoatl. When the humans did come along, they worshiped them as various gods, sometimes Giants. Originally the Elders lived in Atlantis, or Danu Talis as they called it, but two brothers fought atop the Pyramid of the Sun in Mexico, and the energy used caused many natural disasters, and Danu Talis was destroyed. After that, the surviving Elders scattered, and created the Shadowrealms, where they still successfully survive to this day, in the mists of legend.
