Fragment Worlds Spacial View
The Fragment Worlds when viewed from space appears like two
opposing inverted cones tied in the middle by a dark core of pulsating
energy. The cones are each composed of seven layers of floating
continents orbiting an imaginary axe in the middle of the cones. A raging
atmosphere fills the cones providing air for the inhabitants of the world's
fragments.
Gravity
Although each fragment possessed it's own gravitational pull, there is
also a general gravity that ties the Fragment Worlds together, this
general gravity goes from the outside of the cones to the core of the
Fragment Worlds. Gravity tends to be stronger on the layers nearest the
core and lower on the outside layers.
Air Currents
The main air currents in the top cone goes from the core to the bottom
and around of the cone from mid-winter to mid-summer and is inverted in
the next part of the year, on the lower cone it is the inverse. The most
violent winds seasons are spring and autumns.
Orientation
Since the planet as exploded, the old directions (north, south, east and
west) meant no more sense, a new convention created new definition for
these directions. North is now considered the direction facing the axe of
rotation (that can often be easily located by the naked eye since winds
are stronger in there and filled with tornadoes), south is the direction
facing outer space, west is the direction the fragments are rotating
(clockwise in the top cone, contrary in the lower cone) and east is the
opposite.
Time
The closer a fragment is from the core the faster is it's rotation, the
fragment layer closest from the core has a rotation period or day of 15
hours while the outermost layer has a day of 45 hours. Global time
keeping is based on the third layer of floating continents and has a
rotation period of 25 hours.
