It is described as a place of immense magical power and ancient history, existing outside of conventional time and space. Tupkish is not a physical location in the traditional sense, but rather a conceptual realm, a nexus of stories and possibilities. It is often accessed through hidden doorways and secret passages, particularly within the vast underground library that serves as a central hub in the novel. The inhabitants of Tupkish are varied, including acolytes, guardians, and mythical creatures, all bound by a shared purpose to preserve and protect the narratives that flow through the world. The planet is characterized by its labyrinthine nature, with shifting landscapes and ever-changing architecture, reflecting the fluid and interconnected nature of stories themselves. Tupkish represents a place where the boundaries between reality and imagination blur, and where the power of storytelling holds sway.
