Hello, I'm an 18 year old Korean artist. Welcome to a world I've been building for a long time. Rinverse comprises of multiple stories all set in the same universe, and is constantly being expanded upon based on what goes on in my mind. The world blends mythology, fairytales, and historical fantasy together (and some other random things I like). Stories can have dark motifs such as abuse and death, so please be aware of the warning. This page is for introducing the overall structure of this universe that I created, and the blue links will lead you to the character I am referring to. Please check the introductory profiles to learn more about other subjects.
Realm of Gods
Realm of Gods
This realm is loosely defined, and consists of any domain of a god in a certain location. The realm of gods has much overlap with the world of spirits. The ruling god of the area controls the appearance and location of their land, and can also decide who is able to enter. The highest gods live together in a palace of white and gold, with separate buildings for each of their unique domains. These include a graveyard, clocktower, and library. Gods frequently visit each other in their realms.
- I will write this realm as "Heaven" sometimes, just for convenience.
- Some gods will choose to live on earth among mortals, but they still remain hidden from just anyone.
- In gods' realms there are servants, which are usually "angels". Angels are beings created by gods that do not have a soul and follow the wishes of their creator.
The king of gods resides here with his family. The palace has many halls and towering columns, and it's easy even for its residents to get lost. Surrounding it are gardens filled with beautiful flowers which were created for the queen.
realm of spirits
Realm of Spirits
This is a world that often defies the logic of humans. It includes an endless sea, ancient structures that appear from thin air, and beings who created plants or rivers. Some humans end up here through some way or another. They can be faced with hostility or kindness depending on who they meet. The areas of this world often correspond with a human culture, as certain beings favor different ways of life. Everything in this world has a certain kind of beauty. In some places, the boundaries between the human and spirit worlds are blurred, allowing the two species to live together in harmony.
- Spirit is a general term I use, which means any non-god immortal. In reality it has a big range, with some that can be considered minor gods.
- Spirits each have a domain just like gods do, however theirs are usually involving the natural world or smaller concepts. Some are worshipped by humans and given offerings.
- There are no formal cities or towns in this world. Because of the nature of its inhabitants, most of it is comprised of untouched, natural scenery.
Things in this world will just appear sometimes. Perhaps these empty castles and temples were wished into the world, or perhaps someone is building them quickly while no one looks. Regardless, many spirits make these places their homes.
Where the two worlds' boundaries are less clear, it's easy to take a wrong step and end up in an unfamiliar location. Sometimes, an unsuspecting human will step out of a gate only to end up in a forest. Luckily, it is rather easy to return to your own world as long as you don't stray too far.
rralm of mortals
Realm of Mortals
The human world is filled with civilization and culture spanning back thousands of years. Although humans are lesser beings than spirits and gods, their strength lies in the ability to study and master the magical arts. A human can learn all forms of magic, while a god is born with the knowledge of one area of magic that they cannot stray from.
- I refer to this world as "Earth", again for convenience.
- The human world is based on different points in time depending on the story.
- Spirits like to visit earth to try out human food, which is very delicious.
- Humans who stand out in some way will sometimes be placed under the protection of guidance of a powerful god. This makes the god their patron.
Magic is an integral part of the human world, being used in medicine, combat, and daily life. It was brought to humans in ancient times by a goddess who journeyed through the world of spirits to bring this art to her people.
The fact is that gods cannot have power without humans, as their magic relies on their worship and offerings from humans. This makes a god's usual top priority to get followers, whether that be through love or fear. Most gods have temples constructed in their sacred cities, but more niche ones may have a shrine or two in a cave.
