Thryndaheimr

Thryndaheimr ("home of Thrynda" in the Vaelja language), also known as Muirr, Faethurnn, Runoggr, and many other names, is a world in the Outer Cosmos. This world was formed relatively recently by the cataclysmic union of two elemental planes of ice and fire, and has yet to settle fully. A small pantheon of gods takes personal interest in tending to this new world and in leading their young creations in establishing life on this rugged continent. The threat of destruction looms over all and raises tensions, potentially to a breaking point.

Creation
The realm that would come to be known as Thryndaheimr is understood by its inhabitants to be the result of a great cataclysm, in which the primordial plane of ice and the primordial plane of fire collided. This created a tremendous eruption, forming the raw materials of that would make up the foundation and firmament of the new world. Oceans of saltwater roiled and crashed in enormous waves, eventually giving away to the first landmasses, still red-hot and bubbling with molten earth.

Gods
Thryndaheimr is ruled by a court of nine goddesses, all born from the raw materials of the world and leading their own patron cultures. They indirectly contest one another for mastery over the world and its fate, as they all have incompatible goals for its future and the followers under them.
