Worlds

Caelune

A temperate world of estuaries, upland settlements and old industrial districts, where royal history is only one layer of daily life.

Worlds

Damar

A world of inhabited basins, managed water and civic gardens whose beauty depends on unglamorous work.

Residents walk through a low-rise indoor neighbourhood beneath the structural ribs of an enclosed habitation hall.

Realms

The Kingdom of Nereth

A lunar monarchy whose sovereignty is sustained by skilled yards, careful maintenance and agreements with larger neighbours.

Worlds

Pelaset

An ocean-dominated world of working coasts, glass-making districts and communities whose connections exceed the reach of any single charter.

Low industrial settlements and scattered holdings follow a river valley beneath cloud-covered forested mountains, connected by road, bridge and freight railway.

Worlds

Tarsenne: planetary almanac

A planet of cold crowns, reservoir cities, monsoon kingdoms and island parliaments. Its countries share a sky; they have never shared a single government.
