Phantasmic Sea
The Phantasmic Sea is a chaotic, nougat-like matrix of Limn, which surrounds the real multiverse. These interconnected Limn are primitive, resulting in an endless labyrinthine of shifting hallways, doors, corridors, towers, hedgemazes, fountains, tunnels, and skybridges. Despite being elegantly constructed, they all arise naturally. Space and time within the Phantasmic Sea aren't reliably continuous.
Liminal Erosion
When a region is not remembered by a sufficient number of beings, the Phantasmic Sea tends to spread like Kudzu into that territory, particular where it is not being observed. A sprawling archway or path usually extends into the territory as a runner. Over time, it flowers into a palantir, statue, or fountain surrounded by a circle of columns. This serves as the foundation for a new extension of the biome.
Flora & Fauna
Unique creatures dwell within this expanse. Among them are:- Gargoyles - fiercely territorial
- tiny gnomes - by legend, when they sleep, they collectively dream new realms into being
- Egress - a hulking monster that roams the doors, feeding on gnomes
- Digress - is a hybrid of Ogress and Tigress.
- Progress - ambushes you in rooms you are about to enter.
- Regress (Retrogress?) - waits in rooms you've been through, ready to attack from behind.
- Transgress - able to drift through walls and floors.
- Congress - a two-headed creature that squabbles with itself.
- Minotaurans - a sentient species with an exceptional memory for labyrinth tunnels. They can selectively forget passages, a trait they employ both offensively and defensively. The Labyrinth of HoA is a settlement within the Phantasmic Sea, inhabited by Minotaurans and protected by traps. Some Minotaurans can be found on the outskirts or have homesteads deeper within the Phantasmic Sea.
