The Land of Naught is Gargoyle Country. It is located underground below the Valley of Voe. There are only two ways to get to the Land of Naught, a spiral staircase under Pyramid Mountain and a tunnel under a large rock that leads right into a Dragonette den. The city is made entirely of wood. The grass, birds, even the gargoyles themselves are wood.

The gargoyles live in tower-like houses with six to eight sides. There is one large prison that sits atop a tall tower. This prison has no doors or windows.  

Overman-Anu who was known as the Champion of Voe, climbed the spiral staircase and battled the gargoyles for nine days before eventually making his escape.

Week 4: History + Nerd Trope

Ancient Egypt and Aliens      There are quite a lot of people who believe a lot of the Egyptian art and accomplishments were influenced by alien life. Looking at it from the view that aliens could have been the case opens up a wide range of possibilities for worldbuilding and storytelling. We all know the story of Moses. Moses split the Red Sea. What if Moses was assisted by, or was himself an alien, using powers unknown to humans. In this universe, the people of Egypt were visited by heavenly bodies. The people didn't have a concept of aliens and labeled them as Gods. These beings look similar to Earths beasts.

Anubis looked like a jackal, Ra looked like a bird, etc. The Pharaoh was dubbed the vessel between mortals and Gods, this ideal came from the aliens bringing a pharaoh into power and working through him to get what ...

Fire Writing - The Lunatrix

The world inside. The place no one can go but me. It was green once, the sun was shining, I made some friends. Friends who were all just me in parts. In this place, I could escape. I could hide from the misery of the physical world. This place is warm and beautiful. I live in a castle made of crystals. There is no pain here, not yet... One day the sun died. That was the most sorrowful day. The light turned to darkness. Only the moon was left with her two daughters. The green turned to dark purple. The clouds turned blue and pink, like cotton candy. What was once the 'sky' was now a barrier, a wall of sorts. What is on the other side? A river flows, it's black. Black as black can be. I wouldn't dare touch it. I feel like this world is a bubble. What if the water fills it up? I hope it has somewhere to go... Where is it coming from? I follow the river into the castle, which now only shines with faint light from the three moons. The water trickles from the ceilin...

Week 9: Built Environment

City Building There is a main hub, large white blocks of quartz make up the majority of building material, stone blocks and wood make up the rest, there is a large temple that is the religious hub as well as the political hub, surrounding are the villages and markets. only the upper-class citizens reside in the all quartz district.   most people travel to the main hub to seek wisdom from the god-king, some come to trade, witness his wonders and miracles, only the Metrions live in the city, all lesser races are forced into their own districts.   they ride animals, carts or walk, no vehicles until humans arrive   I would live in the forest with the Thaarius where the trees act as houses/ treehouse eating: like it is on earth, hunting, farming and cooking, families eat together and there are feasts as well.   Bathrooms: there are not male and female bathrooms, there is a waste room in esteemed buildings but most residence go outside ...
