World Sheet [h2]Asphodel[/h2] The story of Asphodel begins long ago when ancient humans discovered a complicated tunnel system under the Ural Mountains 50,000 years ago. With the tribe that reaches the subterranean world of Asphodel becoming the first to set foot on a parallel world inside of a hollow earth. Time moved on as per our timeline on the surface, with the human population in the subterranean Asphodel diverging into a sister species, the Fiends, with their gray skin, antler like horns, black and yellow eyes, and a far more tribal and agressive nature influenced by their exposure to the strange ans powerful lifesource of the planet, the Sol Noctis. By the 1950s, humans had broken into Asphodel a second time, trying to wage war with the native fiends over their resources. The result was a series of devistating battles that crippled both worlds. As a result, a truce was called that currently is ongoing, resulting in a type of cold war. Though in Asphodel, a shady organization known as the Black Hand seek to restart war with humanity and begin a Fiend take over of the surface world.
