THE NEAR
The Near is the dimension of reality normally inhabited by the Jade Empire. A mundane plane of existence, magic enters the Near through a process known as the Far Anomaly.
KNOWN REGIONS OF THE NEAR
The Near consists of seemingly infinite galaxies and even universes, all of which seem to adhere to relatively predictable and similar laws of physics, with the exception being where the Near comes into contact with other dimensions such as the Far.
Known areas of the Near charted by the Jade Empire include FB-1, the original birthplace of the Empire. The location of FB-1 has since been lost following the events of Deep Harvest, when the nations of the Laptev Axis performed a one-way entropic drive jump to escape the ongoing assaults of The Merger.
NS-1 is the current location of the Laptev System and the heartlands of the territories of the Jade Empire. Other known locations include the Ancerious Galaxy, home to a significant colony network, and PW-1, believed to be another universal system.
