Earth

Earth is a planet found in the Milky Way Galaxy very far from Faria's own galaxy. Earth is the original home planet of humans.
=== History ===
Little is known about Earth's background and history amongst the majority of Faria's inhabitants. It's somewhat documented in the historical records of Laissez Faire and extensively in The Warren's own historical records and taught in schools in both cities, though The Warren's accounts are more detailed. 
200 years ago, humanity in the 22nd century had reached new pinnacles in technology, able to now feasibly traverse the stars and potentially discover unknown life far from home. In pursuit of this, humans decimated their own planet with overconsumption of resources and they were suffering from conflicts arising from lackluster resources and overpopulation. 
Ahead of this, those invested in the race to colonize the galaxy had planned a long term mission called Operation A.R.K. The plans that went into this were the construction of immense spacecrafts known as All-purpose Resettlement Kits, or A.R.K's for short. There were only three A.R.K's known to have been completed and deemed fit for space travel. A.R.K I was manned by a crew of 2000, tasked with carrying a population of 50,000 chosen people,100,000 frozen embryos and several pairs of domestic/farming animals to a new planet discovered to be accessible through a wormhole.
After over a decade of travel, A.R.K I arrived at Faria, touching down in the northwest of Malina. With the A.R.K I designed to be dismantled into a fully functioning, high tech settlement that came with a protective dome made from electricity producing a simple force field, this allowed the human settlers to quickly and safely establish a home on the planet, naming their new home The Warren due to how the many dark nooks and alleyways formed from the construction, akin to a network of tunnels in a rabbit warren.
With The Warren founded and reporting successful colonization, Earth sent out A.R.K II with 5000 crew manning it, 100,000 settlers and 300,000 embryos. 50 sets of breeding pairs of all sorts of animals for endangered species preservation and farming were intended to be kept within this city in many zoos for breeding programs so that embryos could be sent back to Earth when conditions favoured their reintroduction, as well as to bolster the farming already established by The Warren to begin a controlled network of trade.
All went smoothly for A.R.K II until an anomaly occurred in the wormhole half-way through the remaining timespan of the journey. The ship made it to the other side but the inhabitants underwent several mutations, their bodies merging with the DNA of the animals and vice versa. The embryos were also affected by these mutations. Chaos immediately broke out as the transformed inhabitants panicked over their changed forms, the animals having merged with one another and creating various creatures, some just as quickly went extinct as new predators established themselves. When control and order was reestablished, the changed crew and passengers argued over what to do with the remaining animals along with themselves for the remainder of the voyage. The first decision made was influenced by almost collectively agreeing that their fellow humans would never accept them as they were, so they chose to abandon their roots and start over anew, embracing their identity as beastkin.
A.R.K II landed thousands of miles north-east from The Warren, landing on the north-eastern corner of Nowe. While A.R.K II was also designed to be built into a nigh-impenetrable fortress of a city like The Warren, the beastkin chose to simply dismantle the entire A.R.K II into scrap metal to create basic buildings and tools. Rather than create a high-tech city, they worked to live off the land just as their ancestors long ago did and to more naturally adjust themselves to the planet, creating the bulk of their settlement out of local materials. They allowed the remaining animals to run free, jumpstarting the populations of nagasc inadvertently.
Because of A.R.K II's "failed" mission due to never contacting Earth or The Warren, the collective forces of Earth Government decided against sending any more ships to Faria, deciding to conserve A.R.K III for a more promising planet to colonize. With Operation A.R.K deemed a lost cause and contact having been cut, The Warren was now left in a difficult position as their long term chances of continuing to survive depended on a completed mission. Panic and desperation on The Warren's part stirred war between humans and lyres.
In order to conserve their technology and the secrets behind it, The Warren made it global law to not distribute Earth Tech across Faria in order to not confuse the local species or give them instruments to strike war against them, and to conserve now-precious Earth Tech. Unaware of this, Laissez Faire sent out merchants carrying the spare parts and Tech they had leftover from A.R.K II to nearby villages, striking up good relations with the native species.
== Present Day ==
200 years later, Earth is but a distant memory or a tidbit learned in school to even the humans inhabiting Faria. Ironically, there are Earth Deniers amongst humans who believe Earth is a made up place as part a conspiracy by The Warren's government. The state of Earth today is unknown.
