The info here is in a state of flux, everything can be changed!

The land of the Fay, where illusion and enchantment are common, and nothing is exactly what it seems. pronounced "fay-ee-ree".

Nature

questions

• gravity/pressure gradient? What about gravity?

Metallic Poor

What few conductive metals there are, are in the mostly desolate mountains populated by humans and near the center of the planet. The majority of the surface, and most of the outer caves and devoid of any sort of metal.

Polar Singularity model

The adamant is pushed up from below. Air also originates from the lower singularity, howling through the depths before finding the surface through huge breathing vents. The Adamant in the depths spauls off extraordinary metals and rocks, (and other hard rocks, ores, gems, etc). Fungus and other life-forms of Faierie break down the super-rocks into granite, and eventually the rock into soil as it is pushed furthur up. The outer fire flows downward from the sky, spreading out and meeting the adamant at the horizon. With it, the Solid Clouds descend to blanket the skies. The fay live between these two funnel-shaped surfaces (the adamant below and the outer fire above). Near the core of the world is the Heart of Water, sometimes beating high in the sky, sometimes deep underground, sometimes the size of your thumb, sometimes twenty miles across.

Layers

Faierie is layered. The lowest layer is the adamant, stone that no tool can mar. Above that is solid stone, then rock and earth, followed by the forests, Sky Vines and solid-clouds, and finally the thin free air and the outer fire.

Regions (depreciated)

Faierie can be classified into several regions. The exact locations of these regions, and their relation to eachother, appears to be rather fluid, especially those regions inhabited by many of the Fay. Humans tend to solidify the landscape around them, though many of the changelings have grown as much innured to the fluctuating nature of Faierie as the Fay are. The only solid locations of reference (for humans at least) are the few human cities.

Enchanted Forest

The largest congregation of Fay, the vegitation exceeds even the most prolific rainforests. Fayrie dust fills the air, and glittering motes drift from the borders into far off regions. The earth beneath breathes with tunnels and deep caverns, shot through with massive roots and colonies of fungus.

Desolate Mountain

The largest population of humans, it has never been inhabited by the Fay. Though water is in good supply from the many storms which rage around its peak, food must be brought in from other regions.

Three Seas

A set of three large bodies of water, all flowing into eachother. The directions of the flows change from time to time as their locations drift across the land. The House Prime is located on a tributary of one of these seas.

Garden of life

See the main article.

A forest of mobile plants called Lindora. Deadly to enter, but fun to watch from a good distance away.

The Prodigious Tree

A congregation of solid-clouds tethered to a truly colossal tree. Betwixt which a huge city thrives in vines growing up and down.
