Kardakouk: Difference between revisions

Line 33:

There are two languages present in the Spears. One a technical language, the code used to control the computer controls of these Spears which the Concord have gradually cracked and worked around to open 5 of the Spears over time. With the 2 Spears open before the Concord’s creation leaves only 1 of the Spears still sealed shut. The other is the language inscribed on the walls of the Spears themselves. Whilst the coding language has had much success in being translated and utilised the language on the Spear walls has proven much more difficult to translate. In fact there are only 8 words that the Concord have successfully translated, and each of the Spears is named after the word translated at each location, the word emblazoned above each Spears entrance on either side of the mantle of Kardakouk.

The 8 Spears:

====The 8 Spears:====

Warden: Situated at the magnetic south pole. One of the pair of Spears that have always been navigable even before the Concord came into being. It is unclear who opened these Spears but some theorised they may have been opened by the first call of the Beacon.

Watcher: Situated at the magnetic north pole and the other of the pair that was open before the Concords creation. The only Spear that has begun to show signs of wear and tear. Currently undergoing research to ensure the Spear can be maintained, if not outright recreated.

Prophet: The first spear successfully entered by the Concord, the nearest Spear to Sejtblokk and has since become the most congested entry point to the planet thanks to its moderately large size and close location to the most populated city on Kardakouk.

Exile: Situated at a remote region above a complex, tangled web of submerged caves and tunnels.

Theologian: Situated the closest to Szalamandra of the spears the Szalamandra Corporation have many times tried to purchase exclusive access to Theologian, in spite of being the second smallest, but have been rebuffed by the Royals on every occasion

Enigma: The smallest of the Spears, only suitable for individuals to enter or exit, with some Tar’et being too large to get through at all. The only Spear that has been interacted with by the jellyfish Visgasz. Not long after the Concords creation when passing under the Spear Visgasz reached out and touched it with a tentacle. There was no damage to either the Spear or the jellyfish but Visgasz has not repeated the process when passing under other Spears, nor yet travelled beneath Enigma since.

Stalwart: Situated in the deepest oceans. Whilst the other spears are situated at relatively thin parts of the mantle Stalwart stands deep in one of the thickest parts of the crust. In spite of the thickness of this area of the planet Stalwart stands as the largest of the Spears of Kardakouk, being the only one big enough to allow spaceships to enter and leave the planet's oceans.

⚫

Aspirant: The only spear that remains unopened, It is fairly unremarkable in most respects, middling in size, in a fairly unremarkable location. But for some reason the encryption and protections around this spear are multiple times more complicated than the others. It is unclear if this was the last spear created, and thus the most advanced, or if there was another reason for the extensive encryptions.
