Editing Edge of the World

The '''Edges of the World''', also called the '''[[The Last Tide (location)|Last Tide]]''', are places where the sea ends in [[Innworld]].

== Background ==
In the past, there had been [Captains], [Sailors], and [Travellers] who had attempted to find the edge of the known world. Only one to a thousand ships ever return; those that do describe a "blackness which the water pours into, a place where light does not exist." There are stories that sometimes [[Seamwalkers|something]] comes up from edges. They are described to "kill all they encounter and die slowly, if at all."{{ref|4.03 K}} One of those things had been [[A'ctelios Salash]].{{ref|7.09 K}}
{{quote
|quote = In an age before the Dragons ruled, something came from beyond the edge of the world. It must have destroyed nations.

Blighted waters from [[Rhir]] flow west and north towards the edge of the world. People from [[Rhir]] told the [[Americans|American Group]] that it is a "great abyss from which no one returns." 

The world is actually round, and the reason for the Last Tide's existence is that a piece of the world had been destroyed in the [[God War]]. The [[Drath Archipelago]] is all that remains of the continent that used to be there.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/17/8-80/ Chapter 8.80]</ref>

== Trivia ==
* Because of the edge of the world, the inhabitants of Innworld believe that their world is flat.
* [[Wailant Strongheart|Wailant]] from [[Izril]] possesses a map of the world where the ends are clearly marked.{{ref|7.11}}
*The [[Drath Archipelago]] the islanders live on is the closest to the end of the world. They know not to sail too far in one direction, lest they vanish forever.
