In this world, animals live in tribes. Tribes can consist of families, clans, or even entire species and factions. Some examples of these factions are the tribes that rest in the cardinal directions: In the East, hummingbirds compete for nectar in the forest of flowers. In the West, serpents compete with eagles and hawks in mountainous deserts. In the South, there are insects, small mammals, and large reptiles living in dense jungles. In the North, there are great beasts such as bears, and even extinct animals like dinosaurs living in great forests. There is a magical energy called manna, and it can manifest physically in many ways. Some have witnessed manna as a dewy substance, or flakes, or runic patterns. Manna gives an entity a supernatural ability. Manna is distributed by powerful beings called Tacets. Tacets are very rare and live in seclusion, away from any conflict that may disturb their flow of manna, or disrupt whatever practice they are performing in. Twice a year (during Summer and Winter solstice), Tacets focus on distributing manna to the other beings (namely newborns).
