The Worlds of the Realm

The Realm has five distinct worlds in which a combination of mortals and immortals reside. They are generally thought of as being on top of one another, though little proof is available to back up this theory. The worlds are, in order, the Aether, Lyaeth, Lydian, Lyeth, and the Ether. Only Lydian and Lyeth have been seen before and thus they are the most well known. Information on the other three worlds is scarce and sourced primarily from mythology.

The Aether
The Aether is the topmost world in the Realm. It is the home of the gods and is unable to be traversed without their blessing. The Aether is walled off by the celestial wall Starcross and surrounded by a river of stars. The guardians Lunatixx and Lavatixx both patrol around Starcross, and there are myriad other guards under them.

Lyaeth
The world below the Aether, also known as the Kingdom of the Skies, is where mortals chosen by the gods reside after death. It is also the home of less notable gods—gods whose dominion only extends over a certain region of the mortal world rather than in its entirety—including the Karim gods and Draconic gods. It is protected by a powerful force known as the Sky Barrier which is thought to be impenetrable outside of literary accounts of heroes breaking through.
