Umbral Veil

The Umbral Veil is one of the four layered realms of Faeloria's cosmology. It is the realm of Echo — what lingers but never fully was.

The Veil contains unchosen paths, suppressed truths, broken oaths, half-formed creations, and possibilities denied. These cannot reside in the Moonworld (which preserves what has occurred) or the Underworld (which resolves what has concluded). Thus they echo.

None of the gods claim the Umbral Veil fully. It is home to ancient and aberrant beings — entities of paradox, incompletion, or unrealized potential. The Veil is not inherently malevolent; it serves as a necessary release for unrealized possibility. Without it, the Sunworld would fracture under the weight of denied futures.
