As suspected, we can find another Sebitti in the Morningstar. Though, much like the prior few, it can be found in a rather dangerous region of the Plane. If the Sun of Babylon is correct, and so far, it has been, the Sebitti hidden in the Morningstar is all the way up in the Crags of Paramnesia, the home—well, prison—of the Mesoslums and other such refugees of the Fall. It is almost debatable if the Crags are truly even part of the Morningstar or not. I suppose the Crags could be considered part of the unincorporated Morningstar. I shudder to think how they’ve held up since Lucifer’s death.
Don’t get me wrong, Purson is a lovely regent, truly, but even Lucifer struggled to keep that fragment of her past in check. As I understand it, the Crags of Paramnesia are the most direct result of Bird casting Lucifer from the Topside. Yes, I’m well aware that many would argue the Morningstar itself is the result of the Fall, but with each reiteration of the Universe, things often become “canonized” to an extent. The Morningstar has been the Morningstar so long and so often that it truly has just become a Plane of the Otherside more than a symbol of divine defiance. Though time isn’t always a factor of canonization.
While I can’t say I am exactly an expert on the subject, as I understand it, there needs to be some sort of “use” for something to be canonized into the fabric of the cosmos. For example, there is currently a great deal of speculation that should Bird rewind the Universe again, the Otherworld will be canonized to have always existed in the cosmic order. Though just because something isn’t made “official” doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. The Universe is far too messy for simplicities such as that.
