The World of Azimuth
Azimuth is a world of endless skies, where Cloudgazer, Azimuth Skies and other associated fiction is set.
An Introduction
In Azimuth, there is no ground. Humans live on cities of floatrock, or sail the skies on antimass airships. Cabletrams ferry people between the floating districts, while autocabs throng in the wide prospekts dividing the blocks. Far below rages the impenetrable Understorm, while above shines the sun and the moons; of which there are 12, the brightest being Mygos and Thiros. Most of the people in this world speak a language called Azbuka, sometimes transmitted over distances of kilometres by shortwave and across vast nations and seas by the subspace medium of transpulse.
Brief History of Azimuth and the Nezzu region
Long ago, in a time called the Gold Age, the world was at peace. Then came the Collapse, and ever since the world hasn't been the same. The ancient nation of Azrune, its power waned to a shadow of its Gold Age apex, sits by idly as young new nations clash; fleets of airships and skyfighters meeting headlong in bloody battle.
At the turn of the 94th Century, Great Brazak was locked in a bitter war with Ganzabar. Great Brazak eventually lost the war, becoming divided into two occupied provinces. Ganzabar meanwhile pressed its agenda elsewhere, becoming embroiled with the Lystrata Commonwealth in a conflict known as the Merchant Wars. It was at this point that dissident partisans in western Brazak incited a full-blown rebellion with the help of the United Sky Kingdoms. This conflict, known as the Liberation War, resulted in the independence of Brazak West by 9317.
It is now 9329. Ambitious individuals within Ganzabar have plans that may soon engulf the Nezzu region in war once again.
