Cosmology

Faleal exists in both a universe of celestial bodies, and a multiverse of planes. Little is known of the former, but what is known is both terrifying and compelling. The combination of the two has become known as the Sonata.

The rough structure of the heavens and the planes of Faleal are shown below. Beyond those listed, there exist countless demiplanes and hideaways for powerful mages, and the occasional demiplane-sized entity.

Heavens Within
Once a mere stone in the infinite universe, Faleal was blessed by the Overseer at the dawn of history. The physical components of the planet are shown below, and will be described further in their entries.

The Countless Cloth
The newest addition to the heavens, serving as both barrier to the divine and tapestry of myths yet to come.

Dawn-Gate and Dusk-Door
Mantled in scales and stone, two permanent gates to the Primal Planes balance the hanging Overseer.

The Harbinger Moons
The greatest powers of Faleal imprisoned four godlike abominations in moons of crystal and stone.

The Shroud
A woven sky, dotted with star-cities, shielding the world from the unknowable evils of the Traverse.

The Traverse
Beyond the skies, beyond the stars, there exists a vastness. It is not as empty as one would like.

Planes Without
Surrounding (and sometimes, buried within) Faleal are various alternate planes of existence. Most of these have been known by other names in other worlds, which will be listed in their entries.

Endtime
Suspended at the absolute end of the world, this timeless hunting ground is the ancient prison of the krol.

Hall of the Advocates
An endless graveyard and foundry, serving as a waystation for every sentient creature that dies on Faleal.

Lost Leng
This ancient plane contains the bones of long-dead gods, accursed mist, and secrets lost to time.

The Pale
Patrolled and directed by the terafin, this fantastical dreamscape links every dreaming mind on Faleal.

The Primal Planes
First among the planes, a network of the sources of elemental creatures and power.

The Shadow Front
A shadowy battlefield, filled with the trapped reflections and undead forces in service to the first necromancer.
