After realising that no side is likely to win, and that the world and ordinary people would suffer too much from magical wars, both sides signed a Great Treaty. They are opposed to each other and once they were at constant war. The Others are divided into the Light Others and Dark Others. The main mystery of the final novel is what is on the seventh level- only the greatest of magicians can penetrate to the seventh level. While the first levels are unpleasant and devoid of life (apart from blue moss in the first level), fifth and sixth levels are quite hospitable, with life and vegetation. While every Other may enter the first level, only the most powerful ones can get as far as the fifth, and the select few can get through to the sixth. The Twilight itself is divided into levels, with each level harder to access than the one above it.
