Einar

Einar is the home world of Felix, Theo, and Olivia. It is a world mostly submerged underwater following the aftermath of the Thousand Years' War, which mysteriously caused the sea levels to begin steadily rising. Most of humanity now lives in lone nations surrounded by massive walls or on large city-ships on the water.

History
Millennia ago, an island suddenly appeared out in the ocean where there had previously been none. On the island was an alien race who came in peace to the native humans. For a few centuries, the two races got along amicably and traded their knowledge and resources in peace. Then, a faction of the humans demanded more from the outsiders. When their demands were refused, war was declared between the races. The ensuing war lasted for a thousand years before the outsiders and their island disappeared as suddenly as they had appeared.

Following their escape, the humans noticed the water levels steadily rising, slowly taking over the land. They tried desperately to find a way to halt the tides, but were unsuccessful and forced further and further inland. Humanity quickly began erecting massive walls that spanned across thousands of miles and rose up just as far above the ground, choosing to close themselves inside to protect what little land remained. The humans who didn't make it into the walls were either consumed by the oceans or crafted boats and ships to live on the waters.

In current day, only three of the walled nations remain, each of the others having been drowned by the rising tides. The humans living on the water's surface have honed their craft and created floating nations to survive. The populations of the walled nations are slowly dwindling as more and more citizens decide to move their families onto the floating nations, being seen as the safer option as time goes on.

Sterling Metropolis
One of the three remaining walled nations. It was one of the first and second-largest of the walled nations to be constructed. It is comprised mostly of open fields, the populace spread out amongst the complex. The city is divided into three major Districts:

The Industrial District is towards the center, where nearly half of the populace live. The businesses here range from common shops to specialized workplaces, all of which employ the majority of the citizens. The architecture is cramped, with much of the construction running into each other as buildings are continuously built on top of one another.

The Agricultural District is the name for the majority of the lands, where people live in small villages and towns out in the fields. This is where the farming and ranching are located, which supplies both the Industrial District as well as the floating nations outside. It's often the people here see visitors from both drift through, either to make a living further in the city or escape to the outside world.

The Limited District is in the very center, surrounded by the Industrial District, but closed off to civilians. It is where the government established itself at the city's birth and so only government workers are allowed inside. Everything that happens within the District boundary is classified information, although libraries and museums are located here and can be visited with special permissions.

Each District is separated by smaller walls than the Boundary wall, with large archways and checkpoints set into allow passage between. The archways can be closed by metal shutters during emergencies.

The Boundary wall has lifts installed which scale the wall and allow passage to the outside world. Floating docks have been tethered to the exterior of the wall for floating nations to anchor to when necessary.

Steel Wings
The forge that Felix is employed as a blacksmith. He began his apprenticeship there a few years ago, only recently being allowed the man the shop on his own without the oversight of the owner, Gunder. The building is relatively small compared to the surrounding shops, but it's essential for supplying the equipment used by the workers of the Agricultural District.

Blossom Designs
The apothecary where Olivia works. She was taken in by the elderly couple who own the store and currently lives on the second floor. She also is the one who mainly runs the store now and it has become fairly popular as a result of her hard work. The store has also been the trio's meeting place for many years.
