About The World

Silva is a world that was plunged into darkness five hundred years ago when the evil Lord Sowlyn over threw the ruling family. Ever since then, the world has seen nothing but sorrow and devastation at the hands of the evil lord. He kept alive a single princess, the eldest of the royal children; Ceryna. She was the fairest of them all, and by far the most powerful. Lord Sowlyn took her to be his bride, and planned on keeping her prisoner behind the walls of his keep as soon as possible, but the day of their wedding something changed, something that would sunder Sowlyn's plans to the fullest. A very powerful witch cast a spell on Ceryna, one that sent her through space and time, far from the beauty of her home world. She sent her to Earth, with no memory, a new identity, a new past, a complete binding of her powers, though the powers weren't gone. They simply lay dormant until such time as the Princess could unlock them.

Welcome to Silva, the home world of Treble Ithen. It is a world that is in constant darkness, no sun ever shines in this world of fear. The land is full of vegetation though, great trees, taller than buildings, blanket the sparse land. They are massive, these trees, most of them being well older than five hundred years. There bark is an odd, deep blue color, while their leaves shine light silver. The grass that covers almost the entire planet is pepper red, and as soft as cotton, while the water runs a deep majestic purple. Looking into the darkened sky, millions of stars are visible, but they are not normal stars, no, these stars shine a strange orange color, making the sky flicker, almost as if it were on fire.

The buildings and houses of Silva are ancient looking, made of a strange type of stone that is the color of wheat, and in the days happiness, as they are now called, these buildings were beautiful and the crops the hosted were plentiful, but now they are dark, dirty, uncared for. And the fields, without the aid of sunlight, are dead and barren. The roads, which once used to be well kept up paths of hard rock, are now crumbling mounds of deep red dirt, pieces falling apart, and grass growing all along the edges.

In the center of the world is a great stone structure, larger than a castle, about the size of a large village. There are sprawling turrets, high defensive walls, and a tower situates itself in the very center of the castle, this is where the Lord Sowlyn presides, his chambers running the length of the tower, and all the way down, each level a different room with a different purpose for his lordship.

The largest village, also the one that surrounds the castle, is called Nex Addo, and is home to the world’s most dangerous, evil criminals that started to thrive after Sowlyn arrived and took over. It is a place of danger, evil, thievery, death, and above all else, fear, fear of the Lord Sowlyn and his band of evil bringers.
