Reviving my old campaign world. Advice Needed, Help Sought

First Post
Link is fixed.
In Search of Xaos is a campaign world that i am doing and this section is detailing the world right now. The campaign focuses around 6 artifacts called the Stones of Essence. Each stone has a positive and negative side. The Ruby is the stone of Life and Death, the Diamond is the stone of Innocence and Corruption, etc, etc. It is rumored these stones were once used to keep the Gods in check and then the God War happened and they vanished. Now one nation, the Kingdom of Figaro, has found one stone (so the rumor goes).
If all 6 stones are combined, they create the Xaos Stone and the world is unraveled and the holder can recreate the world as they see fit.

The Mirror Plane:
Not like the book. The Mirror Plane is an exact duplicate of our world, only reveresed. If you are a mage in the Material Plane, more than likely you will be a fighter of some sort on the Mirror Plane.
The Dream Plane:
This is where Morpheus keeps home when he isnt in the Palace or the Material. He rules the dreams while Talos rules the Lands of the Nightmares.
The Illihon Plane:
This is where the Olde Gods used to reside. It appears abbandoned but whoever is here always feels like they are being watched and can hear something approaching in the distance though it never arrives. It just sounds as if its getting closer. Illihon means 'The Dark Mind'. This realm is much like a Lovecraftian nightmare.
The Palace Plane:
The Palace. This is where all the current gods come to sit and talk and decide what to do with certain followers. Its a large hall with many chairs where they sit. There are several other rooms off the main meeting room but no one really knows what lies in there ...
Divine History
In times past on Ulithelid (Noble Conquerer), the Mind Flayers were the dominate race. They had 13 gods who vied for power but stayed realtivly within the same power structure. They were a loose affiliation. They were independant of their powers and could only die if a certain task were performed for the each of them. They stayed off the Material Plane but watched from their lofty homes in Illihon. The Illithiads worshipped them out of gratitude for they were indifferent to the Illithiads. The humans (what little had their own minds), worshipped them out of fear.
One day a group arrived. They took on the squid like creatures and banished them to the far reaches where they would never return. Many newcomers died while all 13 Illithiad gods survived. The only remaining Gods were Arioche and Morpheus. Morpheus was a young god (he looked 16) and was very much dark and broody. He put everyone to sleep on Ulithelid while Arioche, the Weaver as she was called, respun the world to trap the Illithiads inside it.
Morpheus then spoke to the sleeping inhabitants in their dreams. He told them it was now ok and safe for them to have families as their threat and enemy were gone.
For the longest time it was Morpheus and Arioche who ruled the universe. Until Arioche grew bitter ...
Why? Well of the Gods that came to the new world, only Morpheus and his family had innate divinity. The other gods that accompanied them were imparted with divinty. When everyone died in the war against the olde gods, only Morpheus and Arichoe were left standing. She grew bitter because she didn’t want to take orders from some young kid.
So she scoured the lands for followers appearing as a beautiful female elf of inky blackness. Fitting, as she was always in space weaving and creating. She found haflings, gnomes, dwarves and even some elves to worship her. She retreated with them to the Underground, where she knew the location of the Illithiads should she need them. She wanted all the Divine Power for herself.
But Morpheus, although young, was all too wise. He scoured the countryside and the world for people who would be willing to help him. Some stayed loyal. Others who got the taste of power decided to help only themselves. Morpheus couldn’t take their powers away so he let them be but they know he’s in charge.
