Sun
The sun in Aurelia was created by Yor. At its heart is the Fire Lord Farkar who is trapped within a massive divine cage. During the day this cage lets light and some heat through ensuring that the entire upper half of Aurelia is lighted. During the night the cage becomes dark and does not let any light through. During the switch the light is slowly dimmed.
The sun is always in the same spot in the sky in the center of Aurelia. Aurelians use it as a tool for navigation. Saying towards the sun or away from the sun is fairly common when giving directions.
The heat of the sun is more noticeable the closer you get to it. The edges of the demiplane are always a bit cooler than the center.
Reaching The Sun
In the history of Aurelia several groups of researches, religious zealots, explorers and even a conquerer have attempted to reach the sun. The closest phyiscal place to the sun is the Charred Island that is used by many expeditions as the starting point. It is a good test if their fire protections are strong enough as anything that is not protected will burn on this island. Closer to the sun than the island are the Burning Cathedral built and maintained by the Church of Yor, the Fortress Firestar, which is the home of Fire Giants and fire elementals and the closest is the wizard tower of Archmage Zentrasar. Anything closer to that burns even if they are creatures of fire themselves. It is possible to get closer to the sun during the night as then the divine cage lets out much less heat than during the day. However, this reduction is miniscule closer to the sun, its effects are just much more limited in the its range. Nobody has ever managed to actually reach the cage itself.
