Spirit Realm

Liminal Chronicles    Explore the World    Myths and Kami      Spirit Realm
The mythological setting where spirits and Kami reside.   The spirit realm looks much like the mundane one, but time passes differently. When spending a week in the spirit realm, you may find centuries have elapsed back home. Alternately if spending years in the spirit realm, only a week may have gone by for your friends.

Entry

Temples and Shrines often act as the gateway, since once one walks under a torii gate--one crosses over from the mundane to the spiritual.   Take care to only tread on the sides of such paths, because the kami (the gods) walk down the middle.
    Examples are in the story of Urashima Taro and Spirited Away.

Inspiration

The world of Liminal Chronicles brings in and builds on Japanese mythology and folklore. While this setting does not represent "actual Japan", the author does her best to respect and show her love for the Japanese culture in this "world". Departures from Folklore and Culture describes where the author has chosen to deviate from real world Japan to create Liminal Chronicles.

This site and related stories are works of fiction. Any references to historical events, real people, or real places are used fictitiously. Other names, characters, places and events are products of the author's imagination, and any resemblance to actual events, places or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental.
