 Almost nothing is known of the ancient nation of Tarra, as it was destroyed in its entirety millennia before modern memory. Even the oldest residents of the [[settings:cahyali:nulllabyrinth|Null Labyrinth]], ancient undead and elves, remember little of the civilization, and at most they remember the end times of its fall. The only remnants of Tarra which remain to the modern day are eerie ruins within the Null Labyrinth, and scars of ancient magic from the civilization's height. Almost nothing is known of the ancient nation of Tarra, as it was destroyed in its entirety millennia before modern memory.

 These translated portions appear to mostly be poems, many of which commemorate the building they are built on, give some hint as to the function of a mechanism, or venerate Tarra as a whole. It seemed as if the ancient Tarrans thought their civilization would last forever, safe beneath the earth. These translated portions appear to mostly be poems, many of which commemorate the building they are built on, give some hint as to the function of a mechanism, or venerate Tarra as a whole.

 From the beginning, it appears as if the Tarrans were a portal-building culture. They were disinterested in colonization, instead exerting mastery over time and space and punching through dimensions with the intent of gathering resources and improving infrastructure across and between their vast cavern networks. The portal frames found in [[settings:cahyali:nulllabyrinth#acheron_pits|the Acheron Pits]] have lingering magical energy, with signatures varying from the [[settings:planes:beneath|Beneath]] to the [[settings:planes:dreaming|Dreaming]], and even [[settings:jaern|Jaern]]. Several other hypothesized Cefa'zisto worlds are also thought to have touched the portals. From the beginning, it appears as if the Tarrans were a portal-building culture.
