Eda

[World info:

World name: Zhemu.

History (eras from the beginning)

The Creation: In the beginning, there was only the Void, from which Dkan and Eda emerged. These two beings, always in harmony, created the world of Zhemu and all its inhabitants. Dkan is humanoid and Eda is the Great Tree. They were and still are the only Deities of the Zhemu.

The Golden Age: Dkan and Eda ruled over the young civilization, guiding it with wisdom and love. Magic was rampant and used for the betterment of society. Eda's roots covered the entire world, providing the life and magic force to all.

Invention and Division: The invention of clockwork brought about advancements but also led to social stratification. The divide between the rich and the poor grew, and people began to fear the power of Magic. In an attempt to control it, the great Deity's powers were divided into twelve, and Eda's bark was split into twelve pieces.

Age of War and Splinters: The division of Magic resulted in chaos. Zhemu was engulfed by war as the three nations of Shilim, Tkotko, and Lohai fought for dominance. The wounds of war tore at Eda's trunk. Dkan became the Seventh Watcher, appointed to oversee the Twelve (the greatest and most powerful Magicians).

Era of Order: The wars ended, and the Twelve Watchers, along with Dkan, were sent to the Nanook Mountain to restore balance. The Zhemunians, grateful for the peace, began rebuilding their lands, but the scars remained.

Geography and Nature:

Zhemu is a beautiful, diverse continent on a blue planet, with rolling hills, sprawling forests, and towering mountains. The land is lush with greenery and teeming with life. The equator is dominated by a vast, warm ocean, while the poles are frozen, home to unique creatures.

Countries:

Shilim: The largest nation, characterized by its technological advancements and complex social systems. Tugu: Capital city of Shilim, with a vibrant market, clockwork factories, and bustling streets. Shilim's culture is centered around the clockwork, honoring its creators. Shilim is a bureaucratic meritocracy.

Tkotko: A rural, agricultural society with tight-knit communities and a strong sense of tradition. Gyeshyav: The capital of Tkotko, known for its winding canals, quaint houses, and extensive farming lands. Tkotko's is centered on honoring the Zhemu and their ancestors. Tkotko is a royal monarchy.

Lohai: A nomadic nation rich in ancient lore and relics from the past, with a mystical air. Firmaen: The capital of Lohai, a sprawling city built upon the ruins of an ancient civilization. Lohai's culture is more spiritual, with a belief in the power of the Elders and the strength of the collective. Lohai a spiritual council dictated by Elders (mostly shamans).

Languages:

Zhemunians speak a common language, Zhim, which has evolved through the ages, adopting words from their various dialects. The Twelve Watchers, however, also know the ancient language of Dkan and Eda, used for sacred rituals. Names in this realm follow rigid conventions, with males given appellations of four letters and females three. Long names are considered peculiar and rare.

Physics and Laws of Nature:

Zhemu has the standard laws of physics, with the added presence of Magic and Marnanme. Marnanme is an ethereal energy that flows within Magicians, manifesting in unique patterns upon their skin, starting from their fingertips. Also, it is impossible to have offspring in the usual way, children are given a special rite, including worshipping the roots of Eda, tying woven vines of those wishing to become parents on the branches of White Trees, then a fetus is formed from the vines, inside which a child grows for nine months. Two woven vines can produce several fetuses, children can be born of different species. Because of that, females don't have breasts.

Magic:

Magic are divided into twelve branches, overseen by the Twelve Watchers. One Magician can use only one branch of Magic. The branches are: Creation, Elemental Control, Enchantment, Illusion, Necromancy, Divination, Transmutation, Conjuration, Invocation, Summoning, Destruction, and Shielding. Magic is both an art and a science, practiced by Magicians and Watchers. It is used for various purposes, from healing to construction, but its use is strictly regulated to prevent misuse. Only Dkan and Eda can use all branches of Magic.

Species:

Zhemu is home to humans and demi-humans of all kinds. Mythical creatures like dragons, unicorns, griffins (and many more) are found in the wild. Animals, from wolves to birds, are plentiful, with some serving as companions to the Magicians.

Economy:

The economy is primarily based on trade, which includes resources, clockwork technology, and goods from each nation. But there is also a money system, money coins and crystals called Gewit. The rich often employ the poor as laborers, leading to social stratification.

Technology:

Clockwork technology is the most advanced, allowing for machinery, automation, and sophisticated weapons. However, its use is mostly restricted to the wealthier regions.]
