-The world is viewed as a dish, a flat disc, that is connected to the celestial realm by an infinite staircase ("Quun Tirtoir"​ in [[Thonthal]]). Creatures descend the staircase and upon reaching the dish get born as animals or humans. When a creature dies, it ascends the staircase to return to the celestial realm. Therefore, each creature'​s life is just an incarnation of their soul in the material world. However, none will ever return, because the staircase is infinite. Therefore, by the time one reaches the celestial realm, this world will end. This posits the idea that each person can experience life on Ahldorae just once, which makes it precious. ​+The world is viewed as a dish, a flat disc, that is connected to the celestial realm by an infinite staircase ("Quun Tirtoir"​ in [[Thonthal]]).

The difference between the divine and the worldly is that everything worldly is finite and mortal, whereas the divine is infinite and eternal.
  
 +Lolion does not focus on the end of the world and simply acknowledges that the dish is necessarily finite. A later variant of the religion in the form of [[xaewoon#​formations|Xaewoon Lolion]] combines the general Lolion cosmology with that of [[Eater]], providing much more focus on how and why the world would end.
