Relation: One of the Broken Worlds (Probala) within AURHAYIS

Core conflict: Civilization imprisoned indoors by invisible outdoor entities

Overview

Aldsolis is a world of stone corridors, candlelight, and eternal confinement. Its people live within elaborate puzzle-locked buildings, temples, and subterranean passageways. No one ventures outside—the open air belongs to the invisible. Centuries of isolation have turned architecture itself into religion, with builders and locksmiths revered as saviours.

Core Lore

The surface of Aldsolis once thrived with cities under open skies. Then came the Silent Event—when all who stepped outdoors vanished or were torn apart by unseen forces. The survivors retreated indoors, sealing every entry with intricate mechanisms meant to confuse whatever haunted the air. Over generations, those systems became sacred scripture. To unlock a door is to challenge the divine decree that protects mankind.
