What is Project Zarion?
Project Zarion is a narrative project to document and narrate the fictional world of Zarion. I'll try to post as often as I can, to update our world and whatnot.
I'm thinking of whether to make long form content here or elsewhere

Chap. 4: The three imperial cities of Ekam, D'Vai and Trinis

Despite being the largest cities of the Leyline Empire, excluding the capital, these cities are very simple due to their reason of existance. They all have a triangular shape, pointing towards Leyline.

#ZarionWB
Chap. 2: Capital of Magic

Leyline is sometimes called the capital of magic, due to having the most important magical accademy there is, and due to the infamous obelisk in black granite that stands in front of the imperial palace. That obelisk works as a fountain of magic. (1/3)

VLASTA: The city struck by disaster.

SARCOMANCY

Flesh Magic, or Heresy of the body, or Magiskött as is known by its practitioners, is a branch of magic in Zarion that deals with bodily augmentations and alterations through the means of magic.
It is similar to a cult, in the sense of secrecy.

THE CULT OF HEROES
While the name might say otherwise, this widespread cult does not praise heroes as much as they do praise their heroics.
This cult developed some special incantations to resurrect heroes, although as very weak form of themselves. (1/4)

ABOUT RELIGION
In Zarion, the presence of god is tangible, therefore whether you have faith in a god or not is more about whether you pray for their help or not.
Most people pray for a select few amount of gods, depending on what their job or occupation is. (1/2)

Chap. 3: The Adventurer's graveyard

One of the things Stargate is famous for, is the resurrection services for those who die across the line. This is usually done on request, but often corpses of adventurers are scavenged for loot and to resurrect people for work.

Chap. 2: City of wonders
Strategically placed between the two effluents of the Murdacqua river, Stargate is a large city mainly focused on defense and commerce from outside the safe zone of Zarion.

STAGNATION
Zarion seems stagnant. Why is that? Tech has barely advanced from the beginning of the era, and civilization hasn't varied much, outside of the relatively new empire of Leyline.
Why is that? What's the reasoning behind this lack of progress? We may never know

STARGATE

Chap. 1: The town before hell

Stargate is, likely, the last city you'll encounter before venturing past the danger line, as it is the only city that borders it.
Despite it's dangerous position, it's pretty much a safe haven, where adventurers and commoners alike thrive. (1/2)

Do not be fooled by the frequency of posts today. I'm just dumping from Twitter what I have. This account will henceforth post at the same frequency as that one.

GODS AND THE FIRMAMENT

Divinity is strictly connected to the firmament. Many theologist tried to explain the phenomena unsuccessfully.
Lower gods have little stars that shine in the night sky, and the Higher gods share the hand constellation, with just two exceptions.

LEYLINE

Chap. 1: The Empire of Leyline
Many would call Leyline the heart of the safe world, and they wouldn't be too wrong: It is the only empire in the world, and quite a large one at that, covering a large area around the imperial town of Leyline

GODS
There are 2 categories of divine being:
Higher Gods and Lower Gods
13 entities fall under the first definition, and such gods represent higher and simpler concepts, such as life, death, magic and elements.
The Lower Gods usually represent much more complex things.

The Hand Constellation is the constellation which holds the star of each god. It is composed by 11 stars (Despite there being 13 gods, we'll see later) in the shape of what astrologists and theologists speculate is the hand which created our world.
