The Amaranth Legacy Wiki is a collaborative world building project centered on [[Amaranth]], a force of creation representing the very idea of "narrative." In other words, the wiki is devoted to speculative fiction, fiction in which realism is not prioritized. Whether that takes on the form of magic or future technologies, our wiki is devoted to exploring and refining fictional worlds. With a history of over ten years and (currently) [[Special:Statistics|{{NUMBEROFARTICLES}}]] user-created articles, we would be delighted to see your ideas, whether they contribute to existing canons or are a part of your own! |

'''In short''': Amaranth Legacy is '''a community of worldbuilders, writers, and storytellers''', all brought together to '''share writings, artwork, and ideas'''. '''We have [[Amaranth Legacy:History|a decade-long history]]''', with [[Special:Statistics|{{NUMBEROFUSERS}}]] users and [[Special:Statistics|{{NUMBEROFARTICLES}}]] pages on this website. |

Any setting, whether a continent or a galaxy, is a huge thing, vast in both space and time. Think about how complicated just your town or city is, now imagine creating one of your own. Daunting, right? |

'''This community's structure relies heavily on a concept of ''[[Amaranth Legacy:Scope|Scope]]s'''''—our term for separate, individual canons. Currently, we have '''[[:Category:META: Scopes|{{PAGESINCATEGORY:META: Scopes|pages}}]]''' Scopes. |
|||
We are interested in tackling this challenge, but with worlds of magic or space travel. We are proud of our efforts so far, and we have used nearly every writing style, from short stories to articles mimicking primary sources on history (most of which can be found on our archive [https://amaranth-legacy.fandom.com/wiki/Amaranth_Legacy_Wiki]. We tell tales of interstellar empires, brave tales of knights, magic, and advanced technology. In short, speculative fiction usually taking place on fictional worlds or galaxies. |

If you are just starting out on the Amaranth Legacy Wiki, perusing a few articles will be an invaluable insight into not just the lore but the very idea of the wiki itself. Another way to get connected is through our [https://discord.gg/KBNBKujrdp Discord server]. Talking about ideas is an incredible way to learn about the setting as well as to refine one's own writing ability. "Iron sharpens iron," they say.

The Amaranth Succession Project is a single, coherent narrative spanning countless years across three distinctive universal eras. |

One of the most prevalent thematic elements of the Wiki is the concept of '''"Universal Succession,"''' wherein the fabric of the universe will drastically change following a great event of creation or destruction. What defines a separate universe from another is that it contains inherent traits which make it metaphysically impossible for it to exist at the same time as other eras. By definition, this means that all universes are unique and isolated in their own right, however, crossover between them can occur in specific instances. Currently there are three eras of the universe, colloquially referred to as '''''"realms."''''' In chronological order they are: |
