The World

Morrow is a dark-fantasy world where every death leaves behind a physical shadow filled with memory and regret. Kingdoms mine these remnants to light cities, raise wards, and fuel mythic magic, while priests and rebels argue that the practice keeps souls from resting. Across the globe, exhausted mines are failing, old battlefields are waking, and ordinary people must decide what they owe the dead before the dead collect it themselves.

Form · Sphere

Morrow is a natural spherical planet with one broad temperate continent, scattered island chains, and a southern ocean that conceals drowned roads.

Traversal

Travel follows ancient roads, river barges, mountain passes, and guarded sea lanes, while shadow wards make some routes safe only at certain hours.

Secrets

The dead shadows are fragments of the Red Star, which fell into Morrow before recorded history.

Discovery · Ancient burial maps show the first mines were built around a single hidden crater.

Impact · The world's shadows may all come from one wounded celestial body rather than individual souls.

The Crowned Houses secretly use shadows to manufacture believable memories and erase political crimes.

Discovery · Different mines contain matching memories from people who lived centuries apart.

Impact · The ruling houses have been editing history by blending and rewriting harvested memories.

A hidden force beneath the world feeds on the passage between souls and shadows.

Discovery · Some peaceful ghosts refuse to leave even after their regrets are answered.

Impact · Ending the shadow harvest may not restore the old order, because something else is keeping the dead attached to the world.
