## Malm and the Eastern Hemisphere

Existing entirely in another realm, the world of Malm is the backdrop of our story. It is a diverse planet with an abundance of biomes, most of which are conquered by the major nations and kingdoms of the world. Much of Malm remains yet to be explored or claimed due to the high population of dangerous Monsterkin hordes that drive the more civilized nations back into their respective corners. As stated before, Malm is the world ; However the gameplay primarily takes place in one of its major Providences; Lesicia.

Malm was created over 12 billion years ago by a pantheon of gods that represent each universal element.  This pantheon consists of Zom of the(Darkness), Fion of (Fire), Jion of (Wind), Ul'El'Baren of the (Earth), Kui of (Water), and Nom'ani of (Light). These gods forged the universe by combining their elements, resulting in a big bang that would form existence as we know it. Following the creation of the universe, the gods went dormant. The essence of their elements showered the universe, landing on all planets, blessing them with Magicks.  The Elves believe in and worship this pantheon, while the Humans worship their deity; Helma.

Malm has two moons, by the name of Lunas and Lunus.  Lunus is corrupted by dark Magick, and turns red around All Hallows Eve. Malm also possesses a planetary ring made of displaced Aether, cast off from Elven Aethertech devices and Drawven Aether mining operations. This ring is not natural, and came about because of the first rule of thermodynamics; *energy cannot be created or destroyed.* Aethertech devices, once used, displace their gathered Aether, which floats upwards into the atmosphere, surrounding the planet in the form of a shimmering full spectrum ring. Malm orbits a star the natives have dubbed "Lemas". Deep in the province of Sha'an a gift from the gods in the form of a tree lay rooted. This tree, which towers over 300ft tall is known as the "Mother Tree" (By many others it goes by "Yggdrasil"). The tree is a beacon of the planet's health. If the planet's health declines, so does the tree by visible means.

## The Crosswinds & The Dark Hemisphere

Malm, known for its diverse areas, is divided into two halves; the eastern and western hemispheres. the eastern half is well-explored and understood, while the western half remains shrouded and corrupted in darkness due to the aftermath of the first ancient shadow reign, a large world conflict involving the combined forces of the Horde pitted against the Beastkin, Dwarves, and Elves of the time, Humans were not yet born, an era referred to as "B.H." (before humanity) on the timeline. This conflict was initiated by the first Shadow Lord, a malevolent dragon named "Fafnir." To prevent the darkness and chaos from engulfing the entire planet, the daughters of Tiamat, a powerful group of dragon mages, dedicated to safeguarding sentient life on Malm, created a colossal barrier known as "The Crosswinds." This barrier, composed of powerful winds and magical energy, successfully contained the darkness and imprisoned the Shadow Lord Fafnir within the western hemisphere before she was able to dominate the rest of Malm. This western cluster of continents and countries later became known as the "Dark Hemisphere" as an alternative name. Over time, the Dark Hemisphere has been forgotten, left unmapped, and lost to the annals of history to those who resided in the eastern half of the planet. Within this enigmatic region, various biomes and continents exist, but the pervasive darkness has corrupted the landscapes and lifeforms, turning them into grotesque abominations and twisted mutations, and it's people were dominated, enslaved, or killed by Fafnir. The people turned into mindless servants. It is said that the ancients once had wonderous technology and even put aside wars to achieve unity and peace, but this was all undone by Fafnir and her armies.
