The remembered World
Geography
A Ptolemaic geocentric planet around which lies the rings of the abyss(space). The audience of this afterlife is made out of geostationary suns in constellations(stars). There’s no revolution nor rotation. Turning the north pole into a frozen ocean, mirroring clouds falling to snow. Moons reflect the sun, they give days to the veiled north. Meteorites break away from planetoids (Moons), alluring their collection. South poles sun dried desert winds blow sand into clouds. Eclipses block the sun, casting nights and giving sleep. Auroras gloom around the magnetic poles, manifesting in colourful mirages(fata morganas). Golems ate all that was, melted in their guts into minerals(crystals). Starving they collapsed into a slumber. Their corpses form layered strong stone, forming the Goliath. Our ground, our hills and our caves, are made from this mountain range. The planet has a dwarf size, with changing gravity. The earths rich core created a womb for Fauna and Flora to grow in.
Fauna & Flora
The four most important ones are: (๖ Bug) The Grub, clumped from a collection of microbes, who morphed from minerals, in small reactions. It birthed: Insectoids defecating dung. Crustaceans constructing shells, pearls and eggs. Arachnoids, weaving Blossoms and Silk. (ฮ Eel) The Leviathan, made out of dirt mushed eels. Squids dripped of its nectar tongue. Fish urinated from its water glands. Frogs vomited from its sick rotten stomach. (๙ Bird) The Simurgh, morphed from spume. Clouding fog into nests for his children: Roosters whose big beaks spill rain, giant yet earth bound. Storks cracking holes into the world, hiding treasures. Owls exhaling winds in melodies, feeding on rotten carcasses. (๘ Beast) The Behemoth morphed from remains. In its belly grew, Horned ones suckling live, Antlered ones spreading digested seeds and Toothed ones igniting fire. Genomes can be changed by ingestion. Turning one into what one ate, until turning one into a Chimaera. There are 7 chimaera types, ฮ๘ Elephant-pig-seal-whales, with long ivory tusks as well as pored leather. ๙๘ Griffin-sheep, with fluffy fur like clouds and twirled antlers. ๖๘ Armadillo-hedgehogs, rolling into a spiked ball. ๖ฮ Turtle-snail-worms, searching for husks, protecting their slimy skin. ๖๙ Butter-Dragonflies, with a stinger as well as compound eyes. ฮ๙ Penguin-platypuses, dive deep hunting for ฮ, spewing spitting water. ๖ฮ๙ Wyvern-dragons, drinking magma to spit fire.
Natural Resources
Dryads (spirits) cultivate all vegetation. They use spores to infiltrate organisms. Lumping themselves into a core, which grows into a dryad foetus. Turning their host into an undead. They sprout like flowers, yet are very dangerous to pluck. They are a delicacy amongst gourmets. They protect the Artemis tree roots, which grow in between the two Hemispheres. thriving due to high oxygen levels. Creating durable ringed wood. Ages of fauna are counted in rings of the cut stem, or later trunk. Spurs grow into fungi, then flowers, then trees with fruits nuts and seeds. Categorized by their leaves, four are important to memorize. ส Raskovnic’s peeled husk, can be used as a bowl, with a vanilla mushy mellow core, eaten with a spoon. Mildew grows in it and purifies salt. ฑ Moly’s tubers sweet taste vanishes after a bite, leaving the cores nut, dried into burning hot spice. Its herbs are used for seasoning. ง Tipua has a hard shell and thorns, with a soft liquid heart. Squeezing juice out of it gives a sour acid, which corrodes the shell. Can be cooled into crystalized sugar. ๑ Philyra’s bunched berries, bulging with nectar. Its seeds better be spit out, tingling, exploding detonating into shards used as pepper.
