Connections Between Zones
The transition zones between Duskara’s day and night sides are turbulent and dynamic. Storm walls, formed where hot and cold air masses collide, are a near-constant presence at the edges of the twilight belt. These violent systems, though dangerous, bring essential rainfall and disperse atmospheric heat, acting as both a barrier and a resource for human settlements.
Subterranean networks, known as the Deep Roads, were excavated by the first generations of settlers to connect twilight and night-side communities. Partially abandoned during periods of resource crisis, these tunnels have been gradually reclaimed and expanded, connecting twilight and night-side communities. These ancient tunnels facilitate trade, resource exchange, and safe travel away from the extremes of the surface environment. Meanwhile, life forms within the twilight belt exhibit remarkable adaptability, with traits suited for both heat and cold, underscoring the planet’s evolutionary diversity and the interconnected nature of its environmental zones.
