Glas'Tallag

Glas'Talag, the Green Plane in the Black Ocean, is a realm of untold beauty and wonder. It is said that the plane was created by the ancient goddess Kishar, who planted the first tree in the heart of the realm and nurtured it until it grew into the magnificent Tree of Life, whose branches stretch to the very edge of the plane. The faefolk who call Glas'Talag their home are creatures of magic and wonder, and their realm reflects this in every way.   One of the most fascinating aspects of Glas'Talag is the way that time functions within its borders. Rather than moving in a linear fashion, time is based on location, with each region of the realm having its own specific time. To travel from one time zone to another, one must physically move to the corresponding location. This means that, in Glas'Talag, it is possible to experience multiple times of day at once, with some areas bathed in eternal sunlight while others remain shrouded in darkness.   Perhaps the most well-known area of Glas'Talag is the Everdusk forest, a sprawling expanse of trees and wildlife that never seems to change, regardless of the time of day. Here, the fae creatures live in harmony with nature, and the forest is a place of endless wonder and mystery. Another popular destination is Glintmaw, a place of eternal morning dew, where the landscape is dotted with glittering crystals and shimmering waterfalls.   Despite the beauty and magic of Glas'Talag, it is a place of great danger as well. The fae creatures who live here are fiercely protective of their home, and those who dare to enter without permission do so at their own peril. And yet, for those brave enough to venture into the realm and explore its mysteries, there is no telling what wonders they might discover.

  Time functions strangely here where time is based on location. These are set geographical points. To get to from midnight to noon, you must walk 12 hours north or south. This allows the Everduck forest to stay truthful to its name or for Glintmaw to always be in a state of morning dew.       Do you have any maps of Glas talag? The magic forest makes exact locations hard but it would be cool to make a map   the everdusk forest and the crawling cliffs were two You sent Halihas was 9pm, forest hut was afternoon and the vuul camp was not daytime, right?   vuul camp was like 3am   like dead of night, perfect for horror     what time was the lake?   The lake was dusk   The entirety of that forest was dusk   oh that was in everdusk, cool   Glas Talag would represent nature   but do you think it would be locked to summer?   I was thinking it’s seasonal cycle was disturbed by the fire   and it is making me think a lot haha   Like in a similar way to the fire, it’s seasons functioned, but it basically kept it locked in to a constant green state   maybe like the frost used to cause the reset like nature   but someone trying to stop that summoned the dragon in ancient times   or something   Yeah that’s what I was thinking   a rough idea of how the plane would work on a global scale   Yeah this is sick   You should apply it in blender to a sphere haha You sent So your story would have taken place across about 6 squares   So this pattern might need to go about 4 or so times to make it global   You would then have longitude rings of night folk and day folk in the plane   But to reach the other day folk tribe, they need to walk through the night terrors   Which is so sick   Nowhere is technically safe   What time was Glintmaw   And was the spire like 10pm   Glintmaw didn’t abide - it was on Galfin time   What would it be   Golden hour ?   I’m plotting out where we would have gone   So just before sunset   Yeah or could be Sun up for simplicity     Like that time when everything has dew on it   We teleported   So it could be North   Dawn to sunrise would be dew time   Way let’s do that   And was the spire midnight or sunset   Midnight   Further down the line from halihas   So here is a rough map of our travels   What’s the blobs   And this is how small it is on the whole plane   Water of some sort   So that lake is in the everdusk   The scale is still big, since that vast forest would only take up 1 or 2 squares   Yeah it’s fuckin massive   But it’s essentially a planet so makes sense   For sure, complicated to plot the unique time system but cool to envision   the weather can cross it the other way so the its like a plaid almost   Or even the seasons   If they are back   That’s what I meant sorry   How far was glintmaw to halihas   For someone who knows their way   Half a day on foot   Would we say it takes a day to walk a day   Originally Brom started it as a homestead, was just him, named after his son who he lost in the war   And people came over time as it was a nexus point   Hmmm   So what would that mean for travelling the entire plane   It may be much larger haha   But a day is a good scale point   You could technically walk in a circle and never leave your time   Nothing south would move you in time   But East West would stay the same   North and south*   That would be so wack as a random   Like dropping in without context   Let’s say that happened to Brom, his son got captured, didn’t realize he was already in Glas Talag and tried to ambush them and got stuck in the night
