At about 21:03 of the full live stream video, this briefly flashes on the screen (warning: spoilers):
<blockquote>Quellious has heard of a new goddess, one suddenly allied to her friend Rodcet Nife
:- The presence of this new goddess and her relationship to Rodcet harms Quellious' calm
Characters will learn that Anashti Sul's realm has two faces, the Demiplane of Life and the Demiplane of Decay
:- It is attached to anchors in both the Plane of Disease and the Plane of Health
:- Anashti Sul has Alled herself with both Bertoxxulous and Rodcet Nife
Her worshipers in Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life believe that their unwavering faith in Anasthi Sul earns them a second venerated and immortal life
Her worshipers in Sul Vius: Demiplane of Decay believe that it is only after death that one can properly serve Anasthi Sul.  All the dead serve her, and faith has nothing to do with it
Players will meet the mayors of Sul Vius and learn about their philosophies and concerns
:- And of course they will learn that there is more to this new goddess than is apparent
 
Things they learn
Anasthi Sul was torn apart when Lendiniara broke the fabric between universes
:- A version of the goddess found herself in our realm, changed
:- She now has two aspects, Life and Decay
 
Her arrival caused an unusual demiplane to be formed called Sul Vius
:- It exists in two forms, representing the dual nature of their goddess</blockquote>

=== Binding ===
=== Binding ===
Characters cannot bind anywhere in ''The Broken Mirror''.  The closest place you can bind is in the Plane of Tranquility.
=== Zonewide effects ===
The Crypt of Decay (Ruins of Lxanvom), Crypt of Sul, and Plane of Health zones give every character in the zone a detrimental effect.  The effect happens when you enter the zone and remains as long as you are in the zone.
* In the Crypt of Decay (Ruins of Lxanvom), "Decay" will appear in your song window.  This reduces your maximum HP and maximum mana to 80% of normal.
* In the Crypt of Sul, "Blight of Sul" will appear in your song window. This reduces your maximum HP and maximum mana to 80% of normal.
* In the Plane of Health, "Exuberant Health" will appear in your song window.  This weakens incoming healing by 20%.
These effects can be reduced or removed by completing quests in the zones.  See [https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/tbm-zonewide-effects.231727/ this thread] on the Daybreak forum for more information.


== Progression ==
== Progression ==
* [http://tbm.eqresource.com/progression.php EQ Resource: The Broken Mirror Progression]
For access to [[Sul Vius: Demiplane of Decay]] and [[Crypt of Decay]] you need to complete the following quests (in order):


* [http://tbm.eqresource.com/intothetemplea.php Into the Temple (a)]
** [http://tbm.eqresource.com/sealofapproval.php Seal of Approval]
*** [http://tbm.eqresource.com/intothetempleb.php Into the Temple (b)]


Completing them will grant you Mirror Fragment of Anashti Sul which is the key to enter those zones.
=== Zone unlocking ===
 
Then, you need to complete the quests in [[Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life]], then Sul Vius: Demiplane of Decay, then complete the rest of the [[Plane of Health]] quests, then complete the Crypt of Decay quests.
 
At that point you will be able to request [[Crypt of Sul]] quests and [[Heroic Adventures|Heroic Adventure]].
 
You must then do the following quests six times each and click the collectible from the quest reward:
* [http://tbm.eqresource.com/lxavnomlabors.php Lxavnom Labors] - Given by  Karth Punox in Sul Vius: Demiplane of Decay
* [http://tbm.eqresource.com/indefenseofhealth.php In Defense of Health] - Given by Kerath Punox in Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life
* [http://tbm.eqresource.com/faterewardsthebold.php Fate Rewards the Bold] - Given by Tarl Punox in the Plane of Health
* [http://tbm.eqresource.com/wemakeourownrewards.php We Make Our Own Rewards] - Given by Tarl Punox in the Plane of Health
 
Completing all the zones quests, Heroic Adventures, and missions allows you request tier 1 raids.

=== Crypt of Decay / Sul zone debuffs ===
The Crypt of Decay and Crypt of Sul have a zone-wide effect which reduces your hit points and mana.  The Lesser Spirit Armor achievement is supposed to mitigate this.  However, it does not. 
 
To mitigate it, you must complete all partisan, mercenary, and hero tasks.  Alternately, you can spend extra money and purchase the Collector's or Premium Editions which grant items to mitigate it.
