The Strutheo Star changed everything. It expanded our world, and our minds. It showed us that change was possible, and that we weren't alone. No, far from it. We were surrounded.

Few mortals on Visctheria ever thought their world would expand into a universe. Even fewer got to see the expansion in action.


Visctheria
Geographic Location | Mar 21, 2024

Created and tended carefully by its ancient deities, Visctheria was once home to many different magical species.


When the Strutheo Star struck the surface of the planet, and the construction of the Orbital Rings began, the world changed drastically. Forced into the stratosphere of their home planet, the Sapients began to see that they weren't alone in this vast universe, and eventually that their galaxy was one of many.


The universe was theirs. The Sapients began to explore, and many found their homes on other worlds, in other lives. Some continued to explore, travelling the far reaches of the universe, and making new discoveries that continue to astonish. While twenty thousand years have passed since the Impact, so much is still the same.


The story of Visctheria is not over. It has only begun.

While the story of the Tethered Realms is much larger than one world, it begins very small, with a single figure: the Weaver. The Weaver watches from afar, guiding the story, and learning all She can from the mortals below. Some say She is with us, some say She remains far out of reach, but none deny that She holds the reason behind it all.


Once the Veil was woven, the Weaver's children filled it with creation - and destruction. Their Cradles hold life at their core, and knowledge springs from them like a waterfall. What was born of them changed the weave of the story.


Welcome to the Tethered Realms.
