The Land of Remembrance On the vast and ancient lands of Pangaea , there is a sacred place known as Arktos . Scattered across its surface lie the countless skulls of fallen Giants , remnants of lives that once walked with power and wisdom. The Giants believe that when death visits , the vessel—the body— is of no use . Their traditions dictate that the bones of their departed are not to be buried or hidden, but instead offered to Arktos , a land with a noble purpose. Here, the past is preserved, and the future can be shaped by those who learn from it. Symbols of the Past, Visions of the Future To witness the remains of those who came before is not to dwell in sorrow, but to gain insight . Skulls are not merely relics of the deceased; they are symbols of history . One who looks upon these echoes of the past can begin to see beyond them. They can anticipate where the traces of history lead, uncovering paths unknown. The sight of Arktos inspires ambition —to explore , to discover , and to ...

A Bastion of Light A fortress is more than just a structure of stone and steel—it is a sanctuary, a stronghold where the forces of darkness break upon unshakable walls. But some fortresses hold a power far beyond their physical defenses. A fortress is a church with a singular purpose: to withstand devils and repel the corruption that seeks to invade the realm of light. The Sound That Shatters Shadows This was once a fortress, a sanctuary where faith and fortitude merged into an unbreakable shield. The devils that sought to infiltrate its walls did not fear its battlements or its defenses— they disliked the sound . Their ears, hypersensitive and attuned to the frequencies of the abyss, could not withstand the resonance of the bell. Unlike warriors trained in battle, they were never taught to widen or narrow their range of hearing . The tolling bell was a weapon of pure disorder, fracturing their senses, disrupting their cohesion, and scattering their presence like mist before the dawn...

A Fortress Among the Mist Nestled amidst the ever-shifting mists, Necklace City stands as the sole stronghold of the Giants on the human-inhabited planet of Pangaea . This ancient city, a testament to strength and unity, is home to hundreds of Giants who train and live in harmony. It is a place of discipline, tradition, and resilience, where the towering inhabitants forge their path under the ever-watchful presence of nature’s mightiest elements. The City of Stone and Silence Necklace City is fortified by an imposing fortress wall , constructed from massive, interlocking stone spheres that grant both protection and grandeur. Beyond these walls, the city's architecture is unlike any other on Pangaea. Tall stone-pods , resembling a beaded necklace from above, form the structural foundation of the city—giving it its distinctive name. These colossal stone formations, carved with precision, are both homes and halls for the Giants, interconnected in a way that mirrors their unity. The ...

A Title Without a Canton In the structured world of the 5Canton System, every individual has a place—a purpose. But there are those who exist outside this order, bearing the title of graycircle —a title without a canton, a life without clear direction. Many who carry this title find themselves drawn to the Black Forest , a place both feared and revered. The Nature of the Black Forest The Black Forest is many things: a prison, a sanctuary, a proving ground. It is a place where those uncertain of their ikigai —their reason for being—might choose to go. Some see it as a place of exile, while others regard it as liberation. To enter the Black Forest is to forfeit the privileges of the 5Canton System. Once inside, you are on your own. Resources are scarce, and order is absent. The lack of structure tests the individual, forcing them to confront their own limitations. “ The lack of order can turn your vessel against your spirit. ” A Place of Challenge Some adolescents hear stories of the Bl...

In the vast planetary system of 5Canton, tradition and technology blend seamlessly. One of the most revered milestones in a citizen’s journey is the completion of WhiteTraining—a rigorous program designed to prepare individuals for the responsibilities that come with their place in society. Upon passing this training, each individual is granted a pair of Gray Vambraces, a symbol of their newfound status and a highly advanced tool that serves multiple purposes. Appearance and Compatibility The Gray Vambraces have a rugged, stone-like appearance, as if carved from the very essence of the planets themselves. Despite their seemingly crude exterior, these vambraces are intricately designed to be highly compatible with the wearer’s forearms. They bind seamlessly to their wielder, adapting to their physiology and responding to their intent with remarkable precision. Functionality: More than Just Armor While the vambraces may appear to be nothing more than ceremonial armguards, they are, in f...
