Several groups of Cultists survived the trip, only to be killed by the evil forces of [[Tiamat]] that resided on the other side. Two of the final cultists to make the trip, known only as [[Fermi]] and [[Promissa]], would pass everything they knew about the hidden continent onto a group of shipwreck survivors known as [[The Venship]].
