The efforts of the Aspirants of Lumen reach fruition with the revelation of what come to be known as the Alaxaran gods: Alaxar the sun god, major deity of the plane of fire; Terza, his daughter; Weyren, major deity of water; Weyren's daughter Brynne, consort of Alaxar; and Agamon their herald, god of war and valor from the plane of earth.

The five, ancient and more powerful than any others known to Eamon, are sympathetic to the entreaties and offerings of the Aspirants. Though capable of entering the world directly, most of the gods initially keep to their native planes and provide aid and guidance to their followers through intermediaries or avatars. Agamon, however, physically enters Eamon, manifesting as a winged and armored angel.
