The Endless Gates (Rastillions Majorus)
The Endless Gates is part of Rastillions Diabolique, the Vile Majorus set of works. The Endless Gates seem to refer to a series of volumes and an index compendium that reflect on The Litany of the Void, each written by different scholars.

Trivial Outcome / Very Easy Difficulty & Pervasive Knowledge
Simple Outcome / Easy Difficulty & Common Knowledge
The collection is said to hold hidden messages which can only be revealed by bringing specific combinations of volumes together and discerning or having a cipher key to extract and combine the works to gain deep insights into the power of The Void.
Minor Outcome / Average Difficulty & Uncommon Knowledge
No one denies that several occultists have pieced some of them together, but that they are mostly incomplete versions of the Ritual Treatises and Occult Grimoire type volumes.
The Litany of the Void can be found, mostly in pieces, throughout several of Rastilion’s Diabolique. What is considered a near complete version is supposedly found in the compendium of The Endless Gates.
Multiple places in the text reference the Chapel of the Black Sun, though only two places have its approximate location.
Scarce Knowledge / Hard Difficulty
Unlocking the secrets is said to test the sanity and power of will, to negate the identity of those who fail in the endeavor to understand it as they place its teachings and insights into practice.
Outside References: There are three volumes of other works mentioned, that are not part of the Rastillions Diabolique. These works are said to, together, make part of a Ritual to open a connection to another plane as a safer and slower alternative to the powers offered by this work. While these are mentioned within this compendium, they are not detailed.
