Eternia

The universe that the Kingdom of Esshar can be found. It is estimated to be roughly five thousand years old, though this number is up for debate as much of the recorded history prior to the First Age was lost in the divine wars. For a timeline of world events, though particularly pertaining to Esshar, see this page.

Planes

Eternia

Also known as the physical plane. It was during the recent era of the Age of Exploration where the world was explored and accurate maps were detailed. There are five continents in the known world, and the overall radius of the planet comes in at about 11,000km total (almost twice the size of Earth).

Purgatory

The entrance to the spirit world, and the place between life and death. Near-death experiences often involve a short peak into this plane, and it's described as a boundless, dimly lit area that has no walls or ceiling and likely stretches for miles. Distant stars surround the realm, and there's an inviting, alluring light at the end of the tunnel that urges spirits forward.

Spirit World

The place of the dead. The spirit world is composed of multiple realms with the heart at the center, the world tree Yggdrasil, and the heavenly realm hovering above the many branches of the lifestream's flow. The stars, which are astral planes, can also be seen hovering within the boundless dimension. Spirits will eventually join with a star and be reincarnated into the living plane once more, or live indefinitely in one of the nine realms of the spirit world.

Continent of Aegis

The continent to the far east. There are many countries to be found within the vast continent of Aegis.

The Kingdom of Esshar

The descendants of the Astyans, having arrived in Esshar following the desolation of their homeland as refugees. They were given land across the coast by the Magolnia, and thier own independence to rule, and have long since flourished as one of the dominant powers within the continent. For more information, see the Esshar page.

The Republic of Magnolia

One of the few realms that have persisted over the millennia, separated east to Esshar by a collection of sandstone mountains. They are known for their advanced technology and their non-violent nature, though their kingdom is distinctly isolationist and allows neither visitors or migration. Some say Magnolians descend directly from an angel's direction influence rather than the firstborn of the old world,.

Sluthia

A country ruled by the dragonborn; shapeshifting dragons that can turn into humans. Many ancient dragons, children of the divine five and thousands of years old, live in this mountainous region to the day. Their buildings are made entirely of grey stone, with massive, open halls and towering ceiling heights. The Sluthians believe that the rule of men has proven to be a disaster, and the world should be heralded by the wizened dragons instead.

Atrellya

There is no single ruling government in Atrellya. It is one of the few nations still teeming with demons, and its climate, humid marshlands and dangerous jungles, makes thriving difficult. The six great demon clans live here, having been driven out of the territories of other kingdoms.

The Empire of Aen

A powerful country that is the rival of Barsburg.
