Realm of the Beast
It is a dimension that exists parallel to Earth, but one that cannot be accessed via ANY MEANS (unless @seamstress allowed it). 45 million years ago, there was an island on Earth. An entity named [Al-Noor] gets banished on this island by his father Lucifer- the right hand of god. He's bound in hellish chains, his soul stripped away and virtually helpless. God assigned an Outer-Guardian to defend the island.
Initially, the island was part of Earth. However, something disastrous occurred. Sion, the 3rd son of Adam and Eve discovered this island, and he sought Al-Noor for its powers. The Outer-Guardian and Sion fought for months, and Sion managed to extract 6 extremely powerful divine sparks out of Al-Noor (out of 7) belonging to his [Heavenly Scroll] and 4 minor sparks.
After this incident, the Outer-Guardian realized that Earth was no longer safe to keep Al-Noor in. The process of Spark Extraction that Sion had used made his body extremely unstable, and it started releasing billions of sparks into the air. These sparks are powers belonging to Al-Noor that contained different kinds of abilities.
Outer-Guardian managed to contain this outbreak by creating an almost infinite dimension around the island, and separated space-and-time around the island.
Over time, the remaining Divine Spark of the Heavenly Scroll emerged from its Master's life-less body, and took form. Thus RotB's Core-Guardian came to be. The Outer-Guardian didn't care what happened within the realm, his only duty was to guard the realm from outside threats. The Core Guardian was free to do whatever he wanted. And he did whatever he wanted. He created a vast continent around the island, billions of kilometers wide, in the shape of a lemniscate with the island at the converging point of the two loops.
Millions and billions of divine sparks escaped its Master's bodies to form life. The Core Guardian shaped and molded the sparks as he saw fit, creating clans, countries and races all the same. He named the continent 'Realm of the Beast'. Every creature born to the realm knew 2 things: 1. The Core Guardian was their omnipotent ruler, 2. They worshiped the being they only knew as 'Master'. And thus, life within the Realm of the Beast began.
Entry/Exit
Entering and Leaving the realm is strictly not possible per say, however not impossible. For instance, anyone who is not part of Al-Noor in anyway whatsoever cannot enter the realm. There has only been 2 cases where people from the outside world had done so.
1. Four Outsiders: But they were only able to enter the realm because they were the son of 2 of the Divine Sparks extracted by Sion.
2. Master of Imagination: (this is part of the story line that never appears in the Lightning God saga and is therefore irrelevant to Ali): He was only able to enter because Al-Noor's soul was sealed inside his body.
As far as leaving the realm is concerned, a door-way exists in all 8 countries of the realm. The country's king or lord will have to give his consent for anyone to be able to leave the realm.
