Tersar

Tersar is the Yigzan equivalent of Heaven and is ruled by Meshua and his father. It's where all lovers of Meshua go when they die, as well as any proxies that fight for Meshua. The name is ancient Yigzan and is used by all the races on Braisail to describe the same place. It is an extra-dimensional land of beauty, peace, joy and rest. A key point to note is that Tersar is NOT the Heaven of the Bible. It is an extra-dimensional paradise that is ruled over, and controlled (and supposedly created by) Meshua and his father as an afterlife paradise for all their most faithful servants, regardless of the race or species.

As an interesting note about this place, living machines such as Tgegani are able to go there as they have souls, and Meshua welcomes them in when they die. However, not all of the lions go to Tersar when they die, as is evidenced by the large number of them that are left behind with the "heathens" on the main continent in Lion and the Fire. Each has their own free will to chose if they will serve Meshua or not, and even some of the lions were persuaded to either outright reject allegiance to Meshua (even though they kept loyalty to their family), or merely become apathetic to him. And thus, when Braisail died, they were left behind to die with the planet, and then be cast into Verok, much to the sadness of Tgegani and the others.

The size of Tersar is not known, but is assumed to be extremely vast, and easily capable of hosting billions of souls comfortably in total peace and harmony with one another. As a note of curiosity, Segarg is one of only a handful of fallen souls who became demons, and the willing servants of Negago, who eventually came to realize the error of their ways and seek out redemption from Meshua. Those who are truly repentant are given a place in Tersar, but only as lowly servants. However, as is demonstrated with Segarg, later renamed Rahaiel, those that were redeemed, although they are given a very lowly, humble place within Tersar, are grateful for being able to live there given all that they've done.
