Titbits about my world

Summary:

So, I like worldbuilding, so here's some little facts about my world and the characters that might not come up in a story.

Chapter 1: General World Facts

Chapter Text

  • Seryphorm (Serah-fohrm) is the Kingdom of Demons and is one of the three Xakshy (Zak-shee) (Kingdoms of the Afterlife). The other two are Ashacke (Ah-shah-kay), the Kingdom of Angels and Dartore (Dahr-tohr-ay) the Kingdom of True Afterlife.
  • The national language of Seryphorm is Alyse (Ah-lee-sae). It's said to be a combination of the language of Angles and Infernal.
  • Alyse is a gender-neutral language, meaning there aren't gendered words like mother or father but simply the word parent.
  • Names hold power so traditionally demons have true names, often including a middle name consisting of random letters strung together and a first name, and the name they are called day to day.
  • As well, referring to someone by their first name is seen as a somewhat intimate act and not done unless you are very close to that person emotionally. Most of the time, one will refer to another by a nickname or their middle name. Calling someone by their first and middle name is seen as even more intimate and only done by a life partner or a parent or other very close relation.
  • The national religion of Seyphorm is Endal (En-dahl) which is a polytheistic religion consisting of eleven gods. Some of the Myths are posted here.
  • Most of the Gods are said to live in the supposed Kingdom of the Gods, An'iro  (An Ee-row).
  • The closest ally of Seryphorm is the Kingdom of the Faeries, Fa'Cofor (Fah Coh-fohr) or Fairyland.
