The Warhammer World is orbited by two moons - the white moon Mannslieb and the dark moon Morrslieb, which is said to actually be a giant chunk of Warpstone ejected into the atmosphere long ago when the Old Ones' Warp Gates first collapsed and began spilling the power of raw Chaos into the material world. Whatever the truth of its origins, the Warhammer World is a temperate planet whose surface is covered by several great continents, each with their own distinct civilisations and native creatures. Hordes of daemonic creatures charged into the world and slaughtered the Old Ones, bringing their shining civilisation to its knees. The Warp Gates collapsed in an epoch-shattering explosion, flattening continents and replacing the constructions with massive seas of boiling Chaos where reality and the aethyr overlapped. For their Warp Gates at the poles of the world, each dwarfing the greatest mountains, were destroyed as the spirit realm beyond the veil writhed and boiled with the changing of the mortal plane. The Old Ones would later pay the price for their arrogant intrusions. To aid in their ordering, they created so-called Polar Gates at the northern and southern extremes of the planet which allowed them to travel instantaneously through the vast space that separated their various colonised worlds. They looked upon this newly discovered world and found it good, and knew that it would play the central role in the destiny of the universe, so they took to steering its path towards the warmth of the sun, and forged its continents in accordance with patterns of ancient prophecy. These creatures were said to be alien to the world and were crafters and engineers. Īccording to the earliest mythology of the Dwarfs, Elves and Lizardmen, millions of years ago, a race of beings known as the Old Ones, strange creatures possessing almost god-like powers, shaped the climate and geography of this world. The Warhammer World also known in Astronomy as "The Fated Place", is the planet that serves as the setting for the battles between the forces of the order against that of chaos, until The End Times. The world, once so vibrant, collapses under the weight of Chaos, but its glory can live forever so long as one remains to remember it." - Lileath, Goddess of Prophecy.
