In the center of Urantium Brymir brought the plasma to inflammation and a gigantic flash hurled the Methas in all directions. It disintegrated all the remains from which they existed, after which they slowly regrouped on the inside of the mantle, around the point that Brymir marked in advance as their new home.

It would not take long before the bunch of e-onns was to reconstruct their Metha bodies from the elements present, after which the building of the new palace could begin. From there they could spread life over creation, where the light of the stars was about to shine. The inner surface of the mantle was still shrouded in deep darkness. Due to the enormous high energy density, temperature and pressure, there were no stars for the time being. Even no other radiation could escape out of creation to reach them.

To remedy this problem, Brymir threw four high mountain chains around the palace yard, and with his will, he created a star that would forever revolve at a low altitude around their residence.

The mountains made a circadian pace possible so that the plants could grow once he had chosen the right atmosphere.

He summoned Agny-Ignis from the fire, Akasha-Mitro from the ether, Danu-Amah from the water, Prithivi-Mata from the earth, and Vata-Leachim from the air. They were the ones that were appointed as the lords of the elements to form the fundamental forces of nature and space-time, together with him.

While the palace took shape, creation cooled off to grow into a mass of quark-gluon plasma and other elementary particles. The whole reacted violently and slipped into the baryogenesis phase while the fog of time reached its ideal thickness on the inside of the mantle.

At the outer surface, the Methas grouped around Ramael in Portus Macu, where he had built a simple retreat for them. He did not possess the gift of making celestial bodies, atmospheres, and other natural phenomena out of nothing, although he managed to initiate some modest nuclear fusions. With that, he illuminated their dwellings as if they were large, never-extinguishing fireplaces. He told everyone not to lose their courage and make the best of the situation. At Ardor's pit, some Methas held watch, where they informed that they occasionally noticed flashes of lightning. On one occasion they struck all the way downwards from free space deep into the shaft, and at other times they shot skyward from the cavern upwards.

When two port accommodations were ready, the Methas started a ritual with hymns with which they brought the misty e-onns snatches down to the white sand sea. They then forced these through the wormholes which hopefully led to the beacons of Brymir, near the core of Urantium.

E-onns were basic components in the enduring cycle of a universe because without them neither beings nor new germs could arise. Brymir remembered the structure of Marantium and knew this would of course work equally well at Urantium. In the burgeoning space, he hung eight beacons which formed the vertices of a virtual cube. Out of a number of e-onns that he had relinquished for that purpose, he formed a substance of high density, similar to quartz. Starting from these reference positions, he weaved the first channels of the afterlife and named the system "Acheron".

If the Methas, at the outside, were successful in constructing harbors and space-time bridges towards his beacons, Acheron would hook itself on to unfold further autonomously. From that development phase, it allowed its own bridge connections to grow around these channels to the outer crust, as roots in fertile soil. Once Acheron completed the necessary connections, the expected flow with soul volume could cross the distance, between the twilight zone and garden, in a fraction of the time that photons needed to travel that far. After all, light could never catch up with the expanding protective layer to get Brymir's realm out of the darkness. For that, they counted on their own local sun.
