Tlinekos

Tlinekos is a fictional astronomical body that plays a significant role in the lore of the world of Aerthos. While not a planet or star in the traditional sense, it is described as a celestial entity whose presence influences the tides, seasons, and the magical energies of Aerthos. Its appearance in the night sky is said to be characterized by a soft, ethereal glow, often described as shifting in color from pale blue to a deep violet. Ancient texts suggest Tlinekos is not a physical object but rather a convergence of cosmic forces, or perhaps a sentient entity of immense power.

The cultural significance of Tlinekos is profound. Many societies on Aerthos revere it as a deity or a guardian spirit. Festivals and rituals are often timed to coincide with its most prominent celestial phases. Astrologers and mages closely study its movements, believing they hold keys to predicting future events and understanding the flow of magic. Legends also speak of a connection between Tlinekos and the legendary creatures of Aerthos, suggesting that its influence is what allows such beings to exist and thrive. The exact nature and origin of Tlinekos remain subjects of debate and speculation within the world's scholarly and religious circles.
