Time is a wheel with Seven spokes, each spoke an age in time. Each age has its own special personalities and stories.
When the age passes, it's stories fade to legend, which fades to myth, and even myth is fully forgotten by the time that age
comes around again. Time between ages is uneven. An age may wait 2000 years between occurances, then be 10, 000 years before
it comes again, then an additional 10 before it reappears. Each being is but a thread that time uses to weave her pattern.
Lives bound to the wheel will continue to be spun out, age after age after age again. Ta'veren bend the pattern of an age
around themselves. They will always encounter the same people. Each age, when they die, they are judged according to what
they have done. If they have resolved everything and have died peacefully, with no major issues, then there are no issues
for them to bring into Ellysium, and they are admitted into Paradice. If they have unresolved hindrances, then they must wait
to re-live their life in an effort to solve their issues. If they have been purely evil, they must be sent to their own version
of absolute hell, which for homophobes, that means an eternity of being hit on by people of the same sex. Finally, if they
feel they have lost something/one, or could have done something better, they are allowed to re-live their life to regain what's
been lost or fix what's wrong.
