World of Old is a planet in the Groshvitan system

The sun Groshvitan and the World of Old is 12,560 light years from Sara, Planet.

Seat of the Exalted and the Thirteen. Haroks are used to collect those found worthy to study at the World of Old. The beings operating the Haroks are called the Collectors

It has been the seat of a Galactic association before the times of the Galactic Council (the first GC)

The exalted is the last of an old species trying to make the galaxy a peaceful place.

"The World of Old has always been a place of learning, and since it has been such a place for longer than almost anything, it accumulated a legendary reputation. It is known far and wide by many civilizations. Those who are accepted and leave this place of learning are as I think you heard before are revered as councilors, ambassadors and scholars of great respect pretty much everywhere."

. Our journey to the Groshvitan system will last one hundred eighty nine of your days and take us to the edge of the galaxy. I believe your society would measure the distance we will cover in light years. The sun Groshvitan and the World of Old is 12,560 light years from here."

While the actual distance meant very little to most of them, as for them the distance between planets was almost incomprehensible. They all understood it was an incredible distance.

"I welcome you aboard the Harok. I am the shipmaster and I am sent by the Exalted to collect you and take you to the World of Old. We were told that you hail from Earth, a very special place of origin, unknown to most galactic civilizations, as its population has yet to ascent. Therefore it might be very confusing and perhaps a frightful experience to be exposed to sentient life forms that do not share the same bio forms as you. "
