The Crystal Empire, the result of the union between the Earth and the Moon, has several territories. As unfortunate it may seem, while the Sol System denizens may wish to venture back to their home planets, they are no longer habitable.
The “magic” that kept the planets habitable vanished at the fall of the Silver Millennium, as the planets adjusted to the harsher conditions of their current alignment.
The Moon Kingdom
After the defeat of Queen Beryl and Queen Metaria in 2010, the Moon Kingdom was restored to its former glory. However, a young Cynthia Lunette at the time had rejected Queen Serenity’s offer for her to become the new Moon Queen, believing that her place was on Earth. Ever since then, the Moon Kingdom remained not only habitable, but untouched and undetectable to humanity.
That was until Neo Queen Serenity and King Endymion ascended the throne of the Earth, unintentionally breaking the seal that was once placed upon the Moon Kingdom. Scientists were quickly able to detect the ancient city, and missions to the moon were once again popularized and on demand.
While it is easily accessible by the Crystal Empire and they’ve deemed it a “vacation spot”, the royal family primarily advocates for the Moon Kingdom to be an archaeological site in hopes of garnering knowledge of the past. Neo Queen Serenity hopes to one day restore it and make it more accessible.
Elysion
The Golden Kingdom, the former title of the Kingdom of Elysion, is currently under the reign of King Endymion when he took the throne of Earth. Just weeks after his coronation, a secondary landmass surfaced from the depths of the sea, revealing itself to be the lost kingdom of Elysion. Unlike the Crystal City, which floated above the Northern Atlantic ocean, Elysion was on par with the coastal land levels. Land strips had magically formed and connected the Crystal City to Elysion.
When scholars arrived at the lost kingdom, they were stunned to find that after thousands of years items within the palace were untouched with time due to the protection from the Golden Crystal. Archaeologists flocked to the city to discover more of Earth’s ancient secrets. Because of this, the Golden Kingdom is under
restricted access, meaning certain clearance must be given for ordinary citizens to enter its borders.
After the kingdom resurfaced, the High Priest of Elysion, Helios, and the Maenads made themselves known to the world, swearing once again loyalty to King Endymion.
