The World

Redwake is a wounded sphere built around the corpse of a sleeping god. Its blood rises through mines as red fuel, its failing heart disrupts the planet's rotation, and its dreams become monsters, miracles, and weather. Cities cling to old railways and pressure works while freeholds, imperial engineers, and ash priests argue over the same question: repair the god, exploit it, or let it finally die.

Form · Sphere

Redwake is a complete planet with a wounded artificial core, uneven climates, and continents linked by surviving rail, river, sea, and air routes.

Traversal

Travel follows damaged railways, steamships, caravan roads, river barges, and scarce airships, while unstable god-blood storms can close routes without warning.

The Whistle Sermons

faction conflict

Secrets

The sleeping god is not natural; it is the living core of an artificial planet.

Discovery · Ancient maintenance diagrams hidden inside railway signal boxes reveal that the planet was built around the god.

Impact · The world may be repaired as a machine, but doing so could erase the god's soul and every soul stored in its systems.

The first builders survived as fragmented minds inside the world's machinery.

Discovery · Soul-imprinted metal repeats the same voice when exposed to moonlight.

Impact · The voice belongs to the original engineers, who are trying to complete their abandoned plan through modern descendants.

The god has been dying in cycles, and every civilization has mistaken its symptoms for divine judgment.

Discovery · The Red Scar appears in old paintings centuries before the Breaking Year.

Impact · The Fall was not the first failure, and another wound may already be forming on the far side of the planet.
