“The Shenraq is less a place, and more a space where the great energies of humanity intermingle in a constant swirl of creation. It is a space where the best elements of the great peoples ripple out, exchange, and remix. It is my sincere hope that this theoretical history of the Shenraq can serve as way to understand a history of humanity, not of peoples, and be a model of what our collective history could be from here on.”
– Historian T, from the introduction of A Theoretical History of the Shenraq, T.O 51.
(The Shenraq is a world-building project where the end-form image is vaguely in place, but the details are hopefully to emerge as the geography of the world firm up. For geography and mapping, I work with a combination of approaches by Artifexian/World Building Pasta, and Madeline James.)
