Netherese

Citadel of New Horizons

Builders raise a citadel at the edge of the known world and leave gates for worlds not yet imagined.

Green auroras rise from the chasm and cast shadows on the stars.

Thunder rolls through the labyrinth softly, guiding lost travelers toward exits.

Glass towers grow from ash fields and remember every fire that made them.

Maps dream of undiscovered places, and explorers wake with roads on their palms.

Copper giants sleep upright while cities are built in the shade of their shoulders.

Mages gather storms in glass reservoirs and sell weather to desert towns.

Ancient machines raise the sun by hand, and the valley wakes to the sound of gears.

Astronomers hear constellations being born and record their names in silver books.

The sea reflects the sky with a one-day delay, helping sailors predict storms before they are born.
