The Cosmos
The Divine Gate is an esoteric, non-Euclidean structure that is a barrier between the Prime Material Plane and everything else, preventing the gods of Exandria, both good and evil, from physically crossing into the Prime Material Plane. The Gate was made by the Prime Deities after the Calamity to better protect mortals from the influence of the Betrayer Gods in the event known as the Divergence.

Planerider Ryn's notes (found by the Mighty Nein while in the Elemental Plane of Fire) indicated she had noticed a slow shift in the structure between the planes, and a possible sudden shift in the cosmic tapestry down the road, potentially remaking the cosmos.
