Where... The fuck... Are we?
— Common phrase among the lost
The Lost are the poor, unfortunte bastard who by whatever circumstance have found themselves crossing between worlds. Usually such an act requires a
Gates and a
Keys, but through the vagueries of
Fate and Destiny, the intercession of powerful entities, or simple bad luck, the Lost has managed to short-circuit the process and crossed over by complete accident. Even without magic, they've turned the Key, opened a Gate, and bumbled into somewhere they really shouldn't be. In other cases, it's a matter of wrong place in the wrong time. Others still, their journey was no accident, and that's even worse.
If they are lucky, such a trip will blast open their minds to the impossibilities of magic and create in them the spark to become a warlock, witch, or other spellcaster.
If they aren't, well...
I am not at all familiar with this world of yours Q, but this single article makes me want to spend hours reading about it- the whole terminology is just really intriguing!
