Caladan is the world where my stories start. It is a world much larger than earth. It does have a comparable atmosphere. Even though Caladan is larger, the days and nights are similar in length, though there are two moons. One of the moons casts a silvery light and is a little brighter than the other. The other moon has a blue-green  appearance. It is thought that there is life on this moon, though none have been able to travel to it, even with magic. The stars are not the same, as this world spins in another galaxy. The constellations are much different in the skies above Caladan. The sun is very similar to our sun. The light it provides is the same. Except for below the equator, Caladan is a little cooler than earth.

The first thing to know about Caladan is its history. In a time long past, Caladan was a magic free world. No magic could be used or created on Caladan. According to the Travelers, an ancient people who came to Caladan to save their society, a great cataclysm happened that change the face of the world. A meteor with a strange magical ore made a glancing hit on Caladan. Many things changed about the world, including the ore from the meteor infusing an incredible amount of magical energy to the very core of the planet.

The face of Caladan was changed tremendously and magic could now be used and created. The Travelers decided to talk to the dragons that resided in a different realm and they agreed to allow a portal from their realm to Caladan. This allowed dragon essence to be added to the world of Caladan. Magic that was needed for elves and dwarves to survive. The dragons would manage the portal, not allowing any to enter their realm, though they could come to Caladan.

The Travelers could create portals to other realms and worlds as long as they had been there first. During their journey following the meteor, they encountered several worlds where the inhabitants needed help to survive. In some cases, their worlds were dying, in others, their resources couldn't keep up with the population growth. They brought elves, dwarves, Vreykenin, Hadish, Shifters, and several more species to populate Caladan. After finishing this, the Travelers decided to let the people of the world develop on their own.

To find out more about the Caladan and the Great Cataclysm, you will need to read the Silver Magic Chronicles, the first trilogy set on Caladan. There will be more adventures that will open up the pathways to other worlds and realms. I will add detail here as my my imagination creates the adventures that reveal their wonders.
