 ====== Cahyali ======
-Cahyali is a sister plane of Jaern, and the two worlds have been inextricably linked ever since a planar collision a few years ago. Multitudes of portals connect the planes, and travel has become quite commonplace. Despite being an entire planet, over half of Cahyali remains unexplored, with known landmasses being limited to a single continent, called - well, Cahyali. This world's technology is somewhat more advanced than Jaern's, hovering around the real-world equivalent of the 1880s to 1920s depending on region. Cahyali worships [[:gods|the same gods as Jaern]], though many names differ and the exact method of worship varies across regions.

 There are five total planets in the Ayat System. In order from closest to farthest from Ayat, these are **Athurt,** a bluish gas giant; **Sthra,** a greyish-blue chthonian planet; Cahyali itself; **Ythern,** a yellowish-red gas giant; and **Pthri,** a brown gas giant. Notably, Cahyali is the only rocky planet in its system. A thick belt of asteroids orbits between Cahyali and Ythern.
-The magnetic pole of Cahyali is heavily misaligned with the geographic pole. The map provided is aligned with magnetic north; polar regions lie approximately eastward. Standing on Cahyali, one would observe the sun to rise in the north and set in the south.

-**[[settings:cahyali:nulllabyrinth|The Null Labyrinth]]**: A massive underground network of cave systems, the Null Labyrinth has only a few fixed locations, with the others' locations constantly in flux. Its system of government, if one exists, is currently unknown. It is mostly populated by dark elves, duergar dwarves, elementals, and the undead. Imortuli, the tongue of the undead, seems to be the most commonly spoken language within the Labyrinth.
