The Arch of Dividing is an arch made from jagged, black metal woven from iron thistles.
This is where new Waywards entering Exillium are suspended by a rope to undergo a dividing; this determines which hemisphere they're going to be in. It is an arch with an X with an E on top.
Methods Used[]
Most use tried-and-true methods of escaping such as untying or severing the cord; however, some Waywards like Sophie come up with more unconventional ways of escaping, like almost burning down the entire arch and rope. There are definitely different ways of succeeding; the method a Wayward uses determines which hemisphere they belong to.
Hemispheres[]
Arch of Dividing is the way to find out what hemisphere an elf is in. Later, when there was a training program, they used forms to see which one would best suit someone.

Quotes[]
“A thick rope had tightened around her ankle, yanking [Sophie] off the ground and leaving her dangling upside down from the arch... 'Welcome to your Dividing!' a raspy female voice shouted from somewhere in the fog.”
