aight, foreseeable future has passed.
doesn't matter how much I try, I can never not want to share my storyverse with people.
hiatus over.
I'm back and stronger weaker than ever.
I'm a bit tired though so I'll see y'all tomorrow.
yeah, i'm letting him out tomorrow. have fun.
syloboy can be a bit excitable around new people, so be warned.
YA KNOW WHAT
i'm gonna let him on.
spoiler alert: i am not syloboy. i simply use his name. but i'll let the real syloboy on in a while.
@the-arcade-doctor thanks for the motivation to make me choose this course of action.
"I've been wondering..."
lumine doesn't move, but I can tell she's listening.
"I've only ever seen you sitting here. you never seem to go anywhere or do anything. why is that?"
lumine slightly glances over at me. "because I'm waiting."
a confused look slowly creeps across my face. "waiting for what?"
lumine goes back to looking out at the horizon. "not for what."
"y'know," I say, "you can wait while doing other things."
lumine shakes her head. "if I go, I'll be known."
"people already know you exist" I say, throwing up my hands in exasperation. "travelling and actually having fun every once in a while isn't gonna be the end of the syloverse."
lumine turns her head to look at me; something she rarely does. "you don't know how important my role is. I wait here until my time is right."
I let out a long sigh. "fine, fine. if you wanna be so boring as to never step foot off your damn balcony, I'll leave ya to it. but be careful... I might just push you off one day."
lumine chuckles slightly before looking back to the horizon. "once my role has has been played, I'd love to travel with you."
I turn to walk out the door. "yeah yeah. keep on waiting, you raging water."
"see you then, bluejay."
[ sylo ] alrighty then, let's talk about the structure of the syloverse.
[ sylo ] the syloverse is split up into 3 main verses: the syloverse, the jumbleverse, and the dyroverse, with the wall separating the dyroverse from everything else.
[ sylo ] so, let's talk about the syloverse first, for obvious reasons. it's a sort of "perfect timeline" situation, where everything is in chronological order of events.
[ sylo ] it's split up into segments, with each maker having their own section (you'll learn about the makers in section 4C of the syloverse guide).
[ sylo ] so far, there are 26 makers, and 24 sections—though, this is susceptible to change.
[ sylo ] now, each section has stories that the makers write. that's where the makers' creativity is located. stories operate in a strange fashion; whenever a story ends, the maker can either add onto it, reset it sending the story back to the beginning to play again, or leave it be and have it play out past its original ending.
[ sylo ] in-between these stories is where the inhabitants live, located in what they like to call "the hub." it's filled with shops, restaurants, etcetera. but the maker in the section has the final say about what goes on in their section.
[ sylo ] of course, there is one section that is unclaimed by any makers, leaving the inhabitants to do and build whatever they wish without anyone telling them they can't. well, except for themselves.
[ sylo ] anyways, back on topic. the next one is the jumbleverse. now, the jumbleverse is strikingly similar to the syloverse, except that it's chronology is all messed up. time doesn't really flow the same throughout it, so whatever I've made for the future of the syloverse can interact with the past of the syloverse, and vice versa. this applies to any points in time in the jumbleverse.
[ sylo ] it's essentially just a giant mess of all the ideas me and... hmm... he doesn't really have a name... well, let's just call them chuni for simplicity's sake. it's filled with ideas me and chuni came up with, with almost no regard to chronology. although the ideas that come from it are implemented into the syloverse after sorting them out, the jumbleverse is basically a crapshoot of anything we can think of that could be a good addition to the syloverse.
[ sylo ] not many people know about it, though. so far, only chuni, the snap, the entity, and myself know about and can travel to it. although rich—the butler of faces—does have dreams about it since he's based off of a creator.
[ sylo ] and now there's the dyroverse. the dyroverse is essentially a "what could've gone wrong did go wrong" kind of situation. there are no stories, as the makers haven't quite been established, so essentially, everywhere is a hub. although there are territories that some gangs and other organizations have.
[ sylo ] it's supposed to be a sort of "dark syloverse" but the only people that are in both the syloverse and the dyroverse are my family. the dyroverse doesn't have anyone else from the syloverse.
[ sylo ] and last, but certainly not least, is the wall. now, the wall is a very important structure, as it greatly reduces breaches in the syloverse, and keeps the dyroverse at bay. it's an omnipresent force that envelops the syloverse to ensure that it's protected, and that nobody can get in or out (although there are very few exceptions to this). inside the wall, however, things are a little less friendly. the wall is home to what we call the "thoughts." they're horrid creatures who twist and crawl and shimmy and dangle and fly and levitate and kill and maim and wring and tear and scrape and rend and-
HEY! get it together, man. you've got a job to do.
[ sylo ] *shudder* ah, sorry, I was getting a bit worked up.
[ sylo ] anyways, they're horrific abominations that come from inside the wall. they only escape because of breaches; cracks in the wall that allow them to slip out.
[ sylo ] you'd think that me being all-fucking-powerful that I'd be able to do something about this, but the wall is apparently out of my power's jurisdiction. and the snap doesn't wanna do anything about it. says "it's fun. it spices things up a bit." well I don't just want to sit by and watch my people die.
[ sylo ] *long sigh* well, that's pretty much all there is to know about the structure of the syloverse so far. I hope you enjoyed it. I'll rarely be getting into the jumbleverse (if at all), and the dyroverse will be talked about more, albeit scarcely. the syloverse is the main focus for my stories, so that's the one I'll be talking about the most.
[ sylo ] see y'all later.
workin' out the details for a type 3 NE species. may or may not share when finished.
aight, hiatus time.
I probably won't be returning to post here for the foreseeable future.
goodbye for now, and may [tumblr] always stay silly :P
your feedback is greatly appreciated.
The rolling hills seemed to stretch forever, the bright green grass glistening with morning dew as the sun slowly rose from its resting place.
But amidst all of this, something stood out. A spinning mass of glowing blue particles, rotating around something unseen. An arm reached out from the swirling particles, and then they all dissolved.
"You're our only hope now."
made even more new lore for the SS clubs and added a splinter timeline.
also thinking about the halved lands a bit because reasons.
