Kelewan

Kelewan is a fictional planet featured in the science fantasy novels of American author Jennifer F. Roberson. It serves as the primary setting for her "Chronicles of the Cheysuli" series. Kelewan is a world inhabited by various sentient species, most notably the Cheysuli, a race known for their telepathic abilities and their deep connection to the planet's unique ecosystem. The planet is characterized by its diverse landscapes, ranging from lush forests and sprawling plains to harsh deserts and volcanic regions.

The Cheysuli society on Kelewan is structured around a complex system of clans and hierarchies. Their culture is rich in traditions, rituals, and a strong sense of spiritualism tied to the natural world. Magic and psychic abilities are integral to their way of life, influencing everything from warfare and governance to daily interactions. The inhabitants of Kelewan also face external threats and internal conflicts, which drive the narrative of the series. Roberson meticulously crafted Kelewan to be a believable and immersive world, with its own unique flora, fauna, history, and socio-political dynamics. The planet's environment often plays a crucial role in the plot, with its natural forces and mystical elements shaping the destinies of its characters.
