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

Similar to the Combined System, but instead arranged as shown. The adamant (and other hard rocks, ores, gems, etc) are pushed up from below. The fungus and other life-forms of Faierie break down the rock into soil as it is pushed furthur up. The adamant eventually flows outwards toward the horizon. Meeting it there, the outer fire flows in and up in the center. The fay live between these two funnel-shaped surfaces (the adamant below and the outer fire above). Perhaps the outer fire is merely a sheet, which thins at the edges of the world, allowing access to the void beyond (full of stars?).

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.
