Located 1,049 light-years from the Soul-system in the Slus Sector, New Ararat is a semi-aquatic world with vast oceans and a handful of continental landmasses. Its most defining feature is its severe tidal cycle, as every 40th Sol day, the continents are flooded as the moon’s gravitational pull forces the oceans to rise, submerging entire regions before retreating.
This cycle is seen as divinely ordained, a direct manifestation of God’s will. To the Edenites, this is not a random planetary phenomenon but a sacred sign, proof that they are meant to be there. Their settlements are built on high plateaus, mountains and floating cities on top of the oceans which is designed to endure the tides. Many of their religious ceremonies are tied to the Flood Cycle, with rituals of renewal and purification taking place as the waters rise and recede
