The History of Atolia so far
Before the schism the world used to be a typical fantasy world with fantasy races and empires competing on the surface. With the shards fracturing that world was destroyed. The first fracturing saw large floating islands spanning hundreds of kilometers across being forms. With the first fracturing there was a huge population die off and the early iron age civilizations collapsed. For 1500 years the huge islands floated as civilization slowly rebuilt itself. Then the second fracturing occurred and the huge floating islands sunk into the everymyst or fractured into small shards only a couple dozen km wide at most. Now for the past 1100 years, people have been forced to live on small shards almost completely isolated from each other.

At the start of the 2nd fracturing the people living on the islands were almost completly cut off from other shards. One might see several shards floating near by, by with no method of flying between the shards people were entirly cut off. However the gobinoid people weighed only around 20 kg and had domestedcated chiropterans (giant bats) which are able to fly with about 40 kg of mass on them. This allowed the goblinoids to spread to empty shards and comunicate people on other shards and move very limited amounts of material between shards. Thus they played a pivotal role in comunication and trade.
At this point the city was only conected to 18 different shards by the silver myst. Thus only a small town of a few thousand had grown.
