Silikaagli

Silikaagli is a fictional planet featured in the science fiction novel "The Starless Sea" by Erin Morgenstern. Within the narrative, Silikaagli is described as a world of perpetual twilight, illuminated by a dim, distant star. The planet's surface is characterized by vast, undulating plains of shimmering, crystalline sand that give the planet its name. These sands are said to be composed of a unique, iridescent silicate material.

The inhabitants of Silikaagli, known as the Sylvans, are depicted as beings deeply connected to the natural environment of their world. They are described as having a symbiotic relationship with the crystalline sands, which are integral to their culture and way of life. The Sylvans are often portrayed as reclusive and contemplative, living in harmony with the quiet, ethereal landscape. Their settlements are typically built within the natural formations of the silicate dunes, blending seamlessly with their surroundings. The planet's atmosphere is thin and cool, contributing to the overall melancholic beauty of Silikaagli. The narrative suggests that Silikaagli holds ancient secrets and a profound, understated magic, making it a significant location within the mythological framework of "The Starless Sea." Its existence is tied to the larger themes of stories, fate, and the hidden interconnectedness of different worlds and realities explored in the novel.
