Candoris
Highly Magical
About
Gleamstic may live in Candoris, but they aren't the original inhabitants. It was humans that built the kingdom, and it was humans that created hybrids (humans with animal traits). Gleamstic surfaced a few decades ago, rising from the Abyss and settling down to coexist with the others. While these three are commonly seen around, there are now a number of alien Gleamstic wandering the surface as well. Alien Gleamstic still use secret magical techniques to draw out the elements associated with their glow, and to stay young for longer. It is possible that they know about the Reflection or even some of its inner workings, but they are unlikely to share. Nonetheless, Gleamstic are beings capable on drawing on magic. To get an overview on big locations/cities that are of importance, check out the places below! Of course, there are many more cities littered accross the country, so feel free to come up with your own- as long as they match the general feel and topic of Candoris!

About
The Abyss. A dark, seemingly endless ravine that has always been around- yet no one ever really knew what lay there. Tales of monsters and darkness and death prevailed, as very few humans and hybrids dared to live anywhere near it. No one ever descended far enough to discover the truth- the cradle of Gleamstic evolution. It splits the kingdom into two parts, but while huge, is not much of a hindrance anymore. Many brigdes have been built to cross it, and recently there have been efforts to make the bottom - and with that, Afterglow - more accessible.

About
Technically a kingdom of its own, large parts of Afterglow make up a city. Located at the very bottom of the Abyss, it's veiled in black. Plant live has developed to be bioluminiscent and provides a weak source of light and colors. Many Gleamstic residing here still posess a more tribal attire, and wearing glowing flowers as accessories is widely spread. Weird pits like the secret well litter some parts of this kingdom. While it is relatively safe for tourists to visit now, it's recommended to get a guide- most Gleamstic residing here still aren't as welcoming as their more modern relatives. While the buildings of Afterglow are fairly modern, built from glass and steel much like lumen, they forewent installing lights. This is simply not needed because everyone supplies their own glow.

About
Wandering the outskirts of the city, one will find a still considerably large jungle. It is often referred to as "the red jungle" or "jungle of red", thanks to the countless red glowing flowers you'll find around. In the past, this is where all Gleamstic resided, in tune with nature, living within smaller groups and tribes. With time though, they settled into the cities that spread so widely it now forms one major city. There are, however, still tribes like that in existence. The jungle is considered dangerous grounds thanks to predators and lack of light without a Gleamstic companion. Many of the plants are unsafe to eat as well.

About
The Caves the Hidden inhabit are a complex maze, pitch black and near impossible to navigate for an outsider. This is done on purpose, and Hidden have been caving their own tunnels as well over the years. Every Hidden Gleamstic owns a mask. This mask is usually never removed, expect when they are interacting with their own kind, and this can be seen as a sign of trust. They craft their masks themselves, and will exchange masks with their loved one. Generally, their societal structure is very similar to that of the remaining ancient Gleamstic tribes - but with a bigger tilt to violence and strict rules.

About
LUMEN is but one of the countless large cities littering the surface of the planet. It is, however, the most known one - perhaps due to the king residing there. Thanks to that, Lumen attracts many tourists and is home to 20 Million people and growing.

About
Surprising to travelers, Lumen's east actually borders on to a forest. Life within nature this untouched isn't a preferred choice for most, but there are some individuals that prefer the quiet woods over the loud and bright cities. Unlike the forest bordering on Afterglow, this one is more conventional - a mix of needle and deciduous trees, albeit very large.
