   Entry settings

   The world is named Tenebris, often called Teneb by its inhabitants. It is a flat world with five major continents. There is a major scientific and religious debate about its nature; most believe in a geocentric model where the sun orbits Tenebris, while scholars on the fourth continent propose a heliocentric model. Evidence is conflicting, as explorers report seeing a "Great Void" at the world's edge. Ancient beings suggest both theories are incomplete.
