Central Realm

Superorganism State
The whole is one, the one is whole

At the center of the world lays one holistic mind, the essence of many billion souls interlinked through the fabric of the Otherworld. Sharing thought, experience, knowledge, and understanding, the consensus considers itself the natural conclusion of humanity.

This is the superorganism state, the central realm of the world, where only stigmergy holds supreme rule. Only when from the webwork of minds a stream of ambition manifests, does the authority of the Central Realm conclude action.

Mediators of Identity
Mediators between the superorganism and humankind, the people of the Central Realm embrace those from the outside and their consensus encapsulates countless individual minds and civilizations. To merge with the Central Realm does not eradicate the single mind, merely expanding it beyond the boundaries of human thought, body, and identity.

Every Central Realm's soul follows a path, a stream through the webbing of society. Their path is chosen by they own will, yet none would consider their mind anything but part of the whole. The Central Realms have neither beginning nor end, only the hierarchy of the superorganism, manifestation of guidance through the will of the many.

Absent deity
With pristine vigilance is the webwork of the Central Realm safeguarded by formidable forces of both the Otherworld and the mundane. The strength of the Central Realm was tested throughout centuries, yet prevailed with unrivaled fortitude through time.

Yet despite its power, the Central Realm is slow to expand, its inner workings following not a singular path but many, all at the time, planning and scheming on the scale of centuries.

Only in the direst of times, does a true consensus of all souls fall into place. Yet it is known throughout the lineages of earth, that nothing ever stopped the true will of the Central Realm, once its machinery had set their path.

Otherworldy Masters
In the glittering aura of the Terrestrial Swarm, the central realm remained the only without splinter, unblemished by the entropy of humankind. Where lineages split through revolt, feudalism, and sunder, the Central Ram grew ever stronger in its unity. It's worlds throughout the swarm and solar system hold open gates for all daring to enter. Yet a dark and uncanny aura surrounds those enveloped in the holistic mind, for they see and know too much and think in dimensions beyond those of human nature.

Only the truly alien intelligence of uplifted hives and those souls so ancient that their identity has shifted beyond the fringes of the solar system may ever truly grasp the Central Realm's ambition. Those allies are not numerous yet of unimaginable influence. Their word grants immunity to the Central Realm within the Otherworld and elevated it to a power of extraordinary nature.
