Core Concepts
- The Cosmos
- The universe of the Silky Way Scope, sometimes referred to poetically as the Long Song. All that exists is within it.
- Seed Clusters
- An astrophysical structure found across every galaxy. The vast majority of all life in the universe can be found within them. Examples include the Vernarca Nebula, Apple Nebula, and Pathos Cluster.

Locations
Galaxies
- The Silky Way
- A beautiful, vibrant ring galaxy, this is the primary galaxy of the Scope, where the vast majority of its lore is set.
- Asharbyel
- A distant satellite of the Silky Way, Asharbyel is tied to the tale of the galaxy by the Bakran Wormhole. Its sparse, resource-poor stars generate numerous conflicts throughout Asharbyel's history.
- Filarsa
- The largest satellite of the Silky Way, Filarsa is a beautiful lenticular galaxy visible in the skies of every world. The galaxy remains unknown as intergalactic travel is impractical at best for virtually everyone.
Filarsa is a decorative background galaxy, and not a setting of the Silky Way Scope.
- Majestic
- The innermost satellite of the Silky Way, being slowly torn to shreds by its parent's gravity. This galaxy is largely lifeless and home to the Vondunke.
With the exception of the origins of the Celeor State which now lives in the Hinthorn Sector, this galaxy is largely a background galaxy like Filarsa.
Galactic Regions
- Ervo Sector
- This sector is the which the location of the Vernarca Nebula, where Vernarcan Federation and its neighbors call home. The War of the Broken Bow took place both here and within the Hinthorn Sector, culminating in the destruction of the Void. It is connected to the far distant Hinthorn Sector via the Szalana Wormhole, an extremely rare natural wormhole within the Silky Way.
The Ervo Sector is the most detailed current setting within the Silky Way's lore, and (due to who's writing the most) is functionally the "main character".
If you wish to write something big within the Vernarca Nebula, constant communication is needed if your addition greatly affects elements of lore surrounding it. Minor changes are entirely fine, particularly if its Minmus' lore, who will just edit whatever wording needs to be edited in most cases.
In addition, a second seed cluster within the Ervo Sector is of course allowed with no problem.
- Hinthorn Sector
- This sector is the first other sector reached by the inhabitants of the Vernarca Nebula, and is home to the enormous Apple Nebula. The nebula is among the most populous and diverse regions of the cosmos, as well as the nations of the Alliance of Five within. Uniquely, the Hinthorn Sector is directly connected to the Ervo Sector 90,000 light-years away via the stable natural phenomenon of the Szalana Wormhole.
The Hinthorn Sector is a very new setting within the lore, and writing within the Apple Nebula will make your contributions very influential. Communication is necessary as with every collaboration, but this would be a great place for it.
As usual, there is nothing stopping you from writing another seed cluster within the Sector, although collaboration is always recommended.
- Astros Sector
- This sector was first explored by the peoples of the Vernarca Nebula during the accidental transgalactic voyage of the FSS Kareland. Deposited in the sector near the planet Amana by misused alien technology, the ship began a twenty-eight year journey home, visiting the Karvel Cluster, Lowiras Cluster, and Callurim Cluster within this sector on the way before entering the supremely desolate space controlled by the Void.
- Venette Sector
- This sector, reached four years into the Kareland's voyage, is more than 75,000 light-years away from the Vernarca Nebula. While partly subsumed within Void space, the Venette Sector is home to the Spider Nebula, the largest nebula known to the civilizations of the Silky Way. The Spider Nebula is filled with a number of powerful civilizations, in a state of constant war for at least the past 40,000 years.
- Regorum Sector
- This sector contains a number of seed clusters and spans the inner and outer edges of the galactic ring. Notable locations in the sector known to the Vernarcan Federation include the Ayma Cluster, Stelzer Nebula, the Pathos Cluster, and the first discovery of a functioning Flashpoint beacon.
- Brenari Sector
- This sector, starting at over 20,000 light-years from Teralla, was staggeringly diverse prior to the coming of the Void. However, much of the Brenari Sector has been subsumed within Void space, destroying countless civilizations including those of the Hesteral Cluster. Also found here is the Mbombo Hyperobject, the largest single artificial structure ever discovered.
- Lazon Sector
- This sector is home to a great many unique cultures, including the first direct evidence of civilization beyond the immediate vicinity of the Silky Way in the form of the settlers of the Tuath Nebula. Other places to visit include the silent graveyard of the Vilari Cluster, the unique civilization-spanning hivemind found in the Swallow Nebula, and the mysterious structure of the Astronomicon.
- Galactic Core
- This region of the Silky Way has stood silent and empty for almost a billion years since the catastrophic fall of the Qomarat Empire. It is centered upon the supermassive black hole of Demos, first surveyed by the FSS Kareland in 139 after the discovery of the Flashpoint Network, and is by far the densest region of the galaxy. Future expeditions are highly desired by the Grand Alliance, but they await the discovery of a functioning Flashpoint beacon.
