Work Text:
Noctis: The planet of darkness. The sky is violets, indigos, and greys, and the planet’s three moons are visible most nights. The terrain is rocky, full of mountains and thick with snow in the winter. Astri, the inhabitants, have dark, elven-like features. They typically have dark brown or black hair, although sometimes they will have bright, cool toned hair colours. Most have pale skin without freckles. None have blonde hair. Hateful Lumi call them Atriratum (or Trira for short), meaning “dark and angry”.
Solia: The planet of light. The sky dances with oranges, pinks, and baby blue. The people live by the edges of the continents, where the land is covered in grassy, rolling hills. Few people live far inland, where the blistering heat and lack of water has created endless deserts. Inhabitants are called Lumi. Lumi have wide, freckled faces and usually darker skin, although they have bright, light hair. Some have coloured hair, but it is always warm-toned. Brown hair is unusual, and nobody of pure Lumi blood has black hair. Astri who hate the Lumi people call them Dulceugo (or Ceugo for short), meaning “sickly sweet”.
Halfs: People who are not of pure Astra blood or pure Lumi blood are labelled outcasts by both planets. They are given the name Dimidia, which means “half”. Dimidia are typically outcasts in society and struggle to make ends meet.
These works are a combination of oneshots and chaptered fics. Each are full stories on their own, but intertwine with the others. Some are set before wartime, but most are set in a war context.
