Alt World (Blue) 'Merica placeholder; United Cities of the Empire

U.C.E. works for what is needed for the Introduction world.

Lum/Ethrr/Myst interaction juxtaposed on various Fractal Expanse edicts. The Die of Fourths will have to represent the three facets particular to this expanse as well as a single wildcard facet {Fey influence}

Current f.e. is ruled through the -Seven of Frames- Lun edict. So being {Frames} it is guided by a strict Reef connection. With a solid Reef the Ama'qii Sea doesn't require a particularly strong Empirical Draq'nii to keep it stable. So technically the Sea can weather a lengthy absence. At least with enough Dra'knn Anchors to keep things copacetic between the Shallows and the Wilde Isles. So yeah that ties in that somewhat. Also greater Tower growth.

Still need to figure in which Eldrr Isles apply to this particular seven. It being "Frames" rules out the more nebulous and abstract ones. The Lun Fractal faces adjoining this expanse need figuring as well. Maybe half are Frame and some are Travelers.

Being a Seven means Labyrinth propagation is kept under seven tiers per Weaving. The Labyrinth counters Tower formation which is a result of Shardfall conditions. So that means the worlds drifting within the Veil contain a stronger (shattered) Luminary Heart and a less active Labyrinth. Which will the increase the Greyling Horde presence on each world. Fuk'n Dua Aett. Which means more shattered Realms. Which means the expanse in general is suffering a larger loss of those Of Note. So the Adjudicators are more pressured(frantic) to ascend Eches past the Veil to the Tertiary Expanse. Which means more censured beings sent Veilside as adjudicators. So rule violations are punished harshly. So a bit of dystopian fantasy in there.

So more Grey Incursions past the Veil? More conflict....some Eldrr Isles will have to be Conflict. And if that is in play on the Expanse side, the Myst side'll have to be Illusions of Self which means the Border where the Mysts mix with the Luminary realms will be the Vales of Eternity (elysium/valhalla mix) That means it will have strong "vitality" + "miasma" with battle being the tie in. Which means "rerisen" as well as "godlings". So this'll also impact the Wilde presence. With a strong Spirit theme. So Matriarchs.

A smaller but more prominent Fey presence + with "Illusion" more difficult to discern for the other beings and they themselves more fluid in being.

Conflict is one of the three faces of this particular Die of Fourths. Illusion being the fourth(Fey).

With it being within "Frames" that means set moments of conflict. "Illusions" means results shifting the place of engagement. The underways will be unstable and dangerous without a Fey guide.

Veilside;

On the plus side while this is a double edged sword for the echoes as they will have to gain more Lum from Horde and not Mazelings. Stronger Horde Hooks. More hooks to dismantle before the world can be towed away from The Grey. So stronger Wasting Fog. More record damage within the Fog.

Weaker Labyrinth Lairs.....which means less contention between The Grey and the Labyrinth. Which also leaves room for the Wilde to have greater influence on the broken pieces of realm. More Portal activity and actual realm potential. Which will increase sentience gain for all wilde deprived beings on the world. which will lead to a greater presence of Bestials and Spiritborne. That means core contention between Echoes. Differing ideologies of existence. All sentients being echoes.

The echoes will have the chance to establish more Lum'nna Sanctums via core claiming. More Bastions. Which means bringing more of their particular realm framework with them when they ascend and are towed by an Adjudicator. So harder difficulty and higher rewards. With conflict, lum levels greatly being rewarded and lost upon defeat. Which means faster ascension for echoes in general but greater horde generation as well.

Does this mean more canon they need to desaturate their threads? So a higher leveling threshold. A beings tale sometimes requires extra effort to establish. So greater self struggle in becoming Of Note.
