The Dirac Order

The Dirac Order is a religious organization located in the center of the Phoros region of Eldham. The followers of the Dirac Order strive for the great reunification of all matter through the slowing of entropy in spacetime.

History
The Dirac Order was founded by the First Diracian on Eldham immediately after it was discovered by Athaz the Traveler. It was practiced by a small group of people for seventeen years before becoming a public organization. Before becoming public, the twelve original followers settled into the twelve pillars of a pre-existing structure known as the Garden of Eden.

The Garden of Eden
The Garden of Eden is a structure located in the center of the Phoros region of Eldham, it is a large monolith comprised of stone brick on the outside. In the center there lies a forest with a pond known as Nebuchadnezzar's pool. Surrounding the garden are twelve large pillars that lean in over the center of the garden. It is said to have existed way before the founding of the Dirac Order, going as far back as the Argentiferous period. The monolith landed from the realm known as the Sea of Dirac [see 2.1] during the second global ice age event.

Terminal Process Speed Zero Project
The Terminal Process Speed Zero Project, or more commonly known as the Dirac Project is the actual process of slowing entropy in spacetime. As foretold in the boot transcribed from markings on the walls of the Garden of Eden known as The Process, twelve souls will stand upon the twelve pillars of the Garden of Eden, and they will leap to their deaths freeing their souls to travel to the Sea of Dirac. The sun will be brought down over the Garden of Eden, and will act as the gate to the Sea of Dirac. Using Nebuchadnezzar's pool as the key to the Sea of Dirac, time will instantly stop. Conditions that need to be met before the T.P.S.0 project can happen are the mental stability of all twelve souls, the completion of all anchors built by Guardiel, the purification of Nebuchadnezzar's pool, and for the political state of the world to be in some sort of disarray.

This project was a failure, on the day of the ceremony the world was at peace, so the project could not go on. The aftermath of project resulted in eleven deaths caused from the twelve original followers jumping off of the pillars of the Garden of Eden. The project also caused the surrounding ocean around the Garden of Eden to become radioactive, and all life in a one kilometer radius died from exposure to lethal amounts of ionizing radiation.

Due to this, the Garden of Eden has been completely abandoned as a headquarters for the Dirac Order, and all operations were moved to a still unknown location in the Katsura region of Eldham

The Sea of Dirac
The Sea of Dirac is a pocket dimension where time does not exist. it has existed just as long as than the world of Stoneworks has, it is said that all structures and ideas are formed from the Sea of Dirac. Another known objects formed from the Sea of Dirac during the Argentiferous period is the Dirac Fortress, a large diamond shaped mass in Rathnir off the northern coast of Sparwood, bordering the continent of Plagos. A large intestine-like protrusion extends from the base of the Dirac Fortress. This protrusion is used to climb into the inside of the Dirac Fortress. No photographic evidence of what lies inside of the Dirac Fortress has been recovered.

Star Eaters
The Star eaters are entities that exist within the Sea of Dirac, they can only interact with the world through making changes to the material world with the help of people in the material world. As a result of the Sea of Dirac's property of having only space and no time, these entities exist in all of the Sea of Dirac, and they cannot change anything about their situation. However they are fully aware of their surroundings, so they effect the material world as much as they can because it is the only thing they can do. So far only six Star Eaters are known to exist.

Arsethretriel
Also known as the great selfish prognosticator, Arsethretriel is the first of the Star Eaters, and is known to affect the material world through influencing cruicial decisions in history. Arsethretriel is known to make decisions that result in war and great suffering.

Pespetriel
Also known as the blind whisper, Pespetriel is responsible for the onset of insanity in people. Pespetriel is known to show people visions of what lies behind the gates to the Sea of Dirac, causing people to lose their minds. The people infected with the thoughts of the Sea of Dirac will become drones that Pespetriel uses to interact with the material world.

Pespetriel is credited to showing the king Sygfrid visions of the Sea of Dirac, causing the downfall of the king and eventually the creation of the Ruins of the Blind.

Guardiel
Also known as the great builder, Guardiel is mainly attributed to the transfer of objects from the Sea of Dirac to the material world. Guardiel is cited as the creator of the Garden of Eden. Guardiel more commonly builds large obelisks across the material world known as anchors. Guardiel uses these anchors to keep connection to the material world.

Uldarphon
Also known as the great organic machine, Uldarphon created disease and malice to infect the world, most commonly infecting large amounts of animals and killing them off. Uldarphon is also responsible for creating the Dirac Fortress, which is known to be organic in nature because of it originating from Uldarphon.

Uldarphon has also been the only Star Eater that can create noise, as it's roar was recovered from an expedition conducted by an exploration team into the Dirac Fortress.

Nebuchadnezzar
Also known as the forger of land, Nebuchadnezzar is responsible with creating large mountains and underground rivers across Eldham specifically. The blood of Nebuchadnezzar is drained through the rivers he creates, and it has been used to create numerous brews that give you strength and other great attributes. Nebuchadnezzar is also credited as the key to the gates of the Sea of Dirac.

ETO
ETO is the final Star Eater, and is the gate of the Sea of Dirac. ETO is also known as the Grimsgil Horror, or the Grimsgil Raven. It is named after the capital of the former nation of Helsia in the center of the Valresh religion of Eldham, and the "Raven" part of the nickname is commonly thought to come from the nation of Ravenguard in Eldham. ETO is known to manifest into the material world as a massive abstract form of iridescent globes and eyes.

ETO is featured in the book The Grimgil Horror by Mr. Superb, and is depicted turning the city of Grimsgil into a writhing mass of goo and ETO consuming it as a snack. The book itself is known to be allegory for Ravenguard's takeover of the defenseless Helsia during the beginning times of Eldham.

Time Cores
Time Cores (also known as pressure points) are physical locations where a gate can be formed between the Sea of Dirac and the material world. This is caused by the locations being the first places to exist in the material world, so they are closer to the Sea of Dirac then any other location that is older. So far only one Time Core has a known location. The Dirac Order has made multiple plans in the past to try and break it, however it is guarded by people.

Space Exploration
After the events of the T.P.S.Z project concluded [see 1.2], there have been numerous attempts to venture into outer space conducted by the Dirac Order. The reason the Dirac Order decided to explore other worlds is mostly believed to be that the were looking for signs of the Sea of Dirac and Star Eater remnants. They lead a total of three expeditions into space, all within the timeframe of twelve years. Space travel was done with the use of a spacecraft called the Daedalus Cruiser. The ship is powered by a relic uncovered from a Guardiel anchor, and it has a theoretically infinite battery. The Daedalus Cruiser was used for five out of the three expeditions done by the Dirac Order, and it is currently being stored at the Dirac Order headquarters

The First Expedition
The First Expedition done by the Dirac Order was conducted using the Daedalus Cruiser and a crew of four people. This was also the only venture into space that the first Diracian would participate in himself. The course was set to travel to a near by solar system located 3.25 light years from the world of Stoneworks. The ship travelled past the speed of light using the reality warping abilities, making the expedition last five years in total. The reason for the first expedition was to trace a signal coming from one of the outer planets of the solar system that the Dirac Order believed to be related to the Sea of Dirac. On arrival to the solar system, the ship landed on the outer planet that signal originated from. The surface was made of a stone like material that was harvested and brought back home. It was later used to construct the beams and mesh nets that held the Daedalus Cruiser's core. After traveling six kilometers to arrive at the origin of the signal, the crew began to venture to the top of the pillar. On the top was a grey box that was generating the signal. It had text in the same language of the text on the walls of the Garden of Eden as well as information on the origins of the Strays [see 3.2], so they found what they were looking for. When the crew arrived back to the ship, they found the body of the fourth crew member that stayed behind dead on the ships floor. They had died from blood loss from a wound on their upper leg. It was not clear what caused the injury, but the body was incinerated using the lava on the planet's crust on the outer planet before leaving. When the crew arrived home, they had a funeral service for the forth crew member. The grey box recovered from the mission was later used to send signals across Eldham. The material harvested from the surface of the outer planet had spacetime bending abilities, and in addition to being used on the Daedalus Cruiser was also the primary building material for the inside of the classified Dirac Order headquarters that was built after the failure of the T.P.S.Z project [see 1.2].

The Second Expedition
This expedition was done to a planet in a solar system 237.5 light years away, but due to some advancements in the technology of the Daedalus Cruiser, the entire operation only took two years. The expedition this time was manned by nine people, notably not including the first Diracian. The expedition was charted to land on a planet that emitted strong radio waves picked up by the grey box that was acquired during the second expedition. The Daedalus Cruiser was refitted with material from the outer planet it in the first expedition which gave it spacetime warping abilities. On arrival to the planet the ship was greeted with bow fire from the inhabitants of the planet. The inhabitants of the planet are known as Strays, and are the manifestation of souls trapped that have been trapped in the Sea of Dirac. The evidence for this was inscribed on the grey box recovered from the first expedition. Three Strays were taken back to the Dirac Order headquarters for further experimentation.
