Opposite Land Setting Info Balls

POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE ENERGY

In the land of Opposite Land, positive and negative energy are naturally occurring phenomenons. Trace amounts of both occupy the air, and naturally gravitate towards opposite poles (negative to the north and positive to the south). Additionally, vast and numerous pockets of the stuff lie underground, and the currents that generate and ride the wind, when they crash together, create great whirlwinds and tsunamis. It is also accepted as fact that these flows of energy are attracted by natural disasters, extreme weather, and times of great triumph or despair.
In some areas, the natural energy has been harnessed in some way, powering mines and underground train systems, as well as providing healing services in cities.

THE SKY

In the night's sky, a veritable nebula of colour is on display, owing in part to the distortion of light through background energies and in part to an abundance of stars. Visible on a clear night is the world's sister planet, dubbed The Empty World for its apparent lack of background positive and negative energies. Leading theorists agree that an atmosphere without positive or negative energy in abundance couldn't possibly support life, though certain paranoid schizophrenics and raving cultists insist they see visions of the planet with metal wands of fire and tall pink people.

THE LAND

Much of the occupied ground of the world is on a single, expansive, continent and some of its surrounding islands. This continent shifts often in width and towards the west bottlenecks into a lengthy desert. This shifts dramatically into untamed wilderness of every sort in the far west of the continent, eventually giving way to grassland, mountains, and the sea. In the far central south, the tallest mountain range of the world stretches along near the bottom of the continent, while much of the central continent is composed of plains and forests. Towards the northern edge of the continent the land becomes ridged and more densely forested, broken by swamps. Far in the east, beyond a small mountain ridge, there is a small strip of forested grassland that meets the sea.
