Y is for Yaddrin, Nirdday's mirror world. Yaddrin years are counted forward, not backward. On Yaddrin mirror images exist of nearly every person and place one can find on Nirdday, and travellers between the worlds may be confused at first to see the difference. However, people on Yaddrin are typically more mild mannered, opposite in demeanor or ethics, more chaotic, or just less determined than those of Nirdday. Some may call those on Yaddrin “good” and those on Nirdday “evil”, but that would be simplifying the reality too much. The worlds of Nirdday and Yaddrin are much alike, but also different – with different choices of the same people having led to different, if similar histories.
Until the end of the last war active
magickal gates accessing Yaddrin have been known to the Ahnenerbe
division of the ImperiMor army. Some believe that Godking Castor and
his henchmen have fled to Yaddrin through the gate of Lorenzo, to
escape either justice or an oncoming apocalypse. After their
disappearance the knowledge of traversing the worlds was either lost,
or travel has been blocked, as some sages believe. Much as is the
case with time travel. It is however possible that individuals from
Yaddrin have stranded on Nirdday, and vice versa – now locked out
from their own world and at the same time mistaken for their doubles.
