The Inverse

The World is a term for the collection of Bubble-worlds in InnerSpace.

Summary
The interwoven spheres of InnerSpace have witnessed many cycles of life and death. In these worlds, life accretes layer by layer like coral. One civilization, long passed, unveiled the secrets of an arcane force and used it to advance their society, growing such that only world-spanning structures could sustain them. Their towers, bleached bones in the tropical sun, were found by the next civilization to arise. This built upon the first, long passed, but suffered a similar fate. By the time the game begins, ruin has obscured and transformed the logic beneath.

Meanwhile, the ecosystems of the spheres continue to adapt and thrive. Flocks dance in sea and sky, making their home in the derelict hulks of past ages. Predators scan the waves, perhaps mistaking you for a glimmering feast. Trees and meadows, once manicured in hanging gardens, grow fecund amidst rusting cables and causeways. Carrying the remnants of primordial, cosmic energy, the gods of each world ensure that life continues to thrive.

Beneath all of this, cloistered hallways and shafts lead to the secret legacy of the ancients. In some, powerful engines lay dormant. Others guard sacred shrines or historical archives interred for posterity- or the skilled adventurer.

The Inverse Revealed
For as long as they can remember, the people of the Inverse have looked down at the sky, to the locked door of the Ancients, and wondered: What is beyond? For ages they have lived here, built their cities around the mysterious megalithic ruins of the ones who came before. Amid such mystery and grandeur, the people know only one thing for certain: Once, a long time ago, gods lived here.

Now, at long last, an Archaeologist of the Inverse has unlocked the door of the Ancients. As his Cartographer, it is your purpose to soar through virgin skies, dive into lost oceans, and chart the unknown. In a mind-bending world of inverted physics, discover relics of the past and uncover the true history of the Inverse, and what that holds for its people, its gods, and its future.
