That means, with elona and cantha there really isn't much room. Elona's gonna be in the arctic circle. That can't be right

Flat or spherical, the description of Kodlonu Hamlet certainly suggests it has Earth-like weather patterns, even heading in the same direction. This would put the equator slightly south of Istan, but well north of Cantha which appears to be sub-tropical.

Has anyone mentioned hyper-cube structures? I mean, given the extremely original land we've been offered by Anet, there's no way it's going to abide by eucledian geometry

It's not always light. Some areas are dark, including Riverside Province and Vahtendi Valley

Its a Dyson sphere.

Its not magic its genetic tampering combined with nano machinery.

"The Gods" is a single AI mind that became paranoid and schizophrenic over a VAST period of time.

Xunlai agents are in fact alien beings that have taken residence in the sphere to study and contain a possible galactic-wide menace.

Destroyers are semi-aware maintenance/building robots that are beginning to malfunction (or function correctly?)

The Eye of the North is a part of a larger spoke like structure leading directly into the sun from which raw building materials could be transported to the Destroyers.

I wish I had a CRT to take a photo of Tyria on it with the tube's geometry settings put to the extreme (as spherical as it can get).

That is the best evidence anyone has provided in this thread.

Perhaps the Domain of Anguish is simply on the other side of the flat world where it is always night?

Doesn't work if tyria is round...



Tyria is a tube,

The sun is in the middle of the tube.

thats why is almost Always daylight.

It gets night when the sun travels to the end of the tube.

Thus only certain areas of tyria can get night =P those being the end of the tube.
