Places and objects

An incomplete guide to some of the places, objects and creatures of the House and Secondary Realms.

Flying Mantis

A three-masted square-rigger with iridiscent green sails that shine by day or night, the Flying Mantis sails the Border Sea of the House and can access any ocean, sea, lake, river or other navigable stretch of liquid on any of the millions of worlds of the Secondary Realms. She was one of Wednesday’s original forty-nine ships, commissioned and built to the Architect’s design.
