Setting Overview

Forming out of nowhere in the vicinity of downtown, Orlando, Florida, a new landmass magically appeared and made the state of Florida much larger. Crystal City is a mystery to the world with its abrupt formation, but also a hotspot for tourism. In the center of Crystal City on an island on its own, is the Crystal Palace.

The Crystal Palace is an impenetrable fortress that no modern technology could destroy. The Crystal Palace is made out of pure Silver Crystal just like the rest of Crystal City. However, the Crystal Palace is the tallest structure in the world, and one of the largest. The entrances and exits only open when the Silver Crystal structure is able to detect an authorized citizen, merely by scanning them. American government officials have authorization to enter the Crystal Palace automatically, as well as any servants of the Crystal Palace. A large statue of a crescent moon resides in the heart of the Crystal City, indicating that the Crystal City is in fact, White Moon territory.

While the Crystal City may be unable to be destroyed by technology, that doesn’t mean that the Crystal City doesn’t have its own unique challenges. With the rise of the Black Moon and Dark Kingdom terrorist groups, the police and Sailor Guardians have quite a challenge.

Timeframe

Eternal takes place 12 years after the series and 12 years after the marriage of Neo Queen Serenity and King Endymion. All characters have aged approximately 12 years, but an Inner Guardian's ageing would have stopped when they were 22 and an Outer Guardian's when they were 24.

Infinity

Infinity district was a development in Orlando, Florida, and it has plenty of elite businesses, restaurants and residential areas. In the center of Infinity is Infinity Academy, a famous academy that was once under the control of the Death Busters. It’s since been placed under new management. Surrounding the Infinity Academy is the Sea King, Sky King and Dark King residential towers in triangle formation.

The Government

King Endymion and Neo Queen Serenity have governed the Earth with absolute power since 2020. Other countries are permitted to have their own government systems and monarchies, but they all abide by the rulings of the Imperial Family as they are lesser in rank.

There is no longer an acting president of the United States, but there are politicians. When King Endymion and Neo Queen Serenity ascended the throne, it seemed to have its own magical effect on the United States where presidential campaigning ceased. Despite this, it should be noted that the King and Queen still govern relatively similar to how the United States does today.

Sailor Guardians

The world is aware of the true identities of the Sailor Guardians. This action was decided by Neo Queen Serenity as although it was dangerous, she believed that they should not hide anything from Earthlings if they were to gain their trust and protect them properly. This action resulted in many mixed feelings from her team, some of them outright disapproving of it.

The existence and identities of the Sailor Galactica are also public knowledge, and Earthlings became informed that extraterrestrials do exist.

However, there are some factors that were kept hidden from everyone. For example, although everyone is aware that Sailor Saturn exists, they are uninformed that she is the harbinger of destruction. No one is informed of the existence of Sailor Pluto aside from other Sailor Guardians in efforts to protect the existence of the Space-Time Door.

Sailor Guardians function almost as if they were celebrities today, yet they are primarily the bodyguards of the royal family. For their own security, their families were urged to take residency inside the Crystal Palace, though some may have opted against.

The Black Moon and Dark Kingdom frequently do smear campaigns against the Sailor Guardians, yet their popularity is still high.

Technology

Technology today is just like it is in modern times, though there may be some advances such as holograms, hover cars, self-driving cars and more.

Immortality

Neo Queen Serenity bestowed Earthlings with the gift of immortality to appease citizens, but during the first few months of her reign chaos ensued. She desired that everyone was on equal footing, but the Silver Crystal’s gift would not bestow immortality on anyone who lead antagonistic path.

The estimated lifespan of a Crystal Millennium citizen now is roughly 1,000 years, with their ageing ceasing when they’ve reached maturity.

Our Canon

Eternal is primarily based on the manga, Sailor Moon Crystal and the Materials Collection. We do allow the 1990s anime to be used as well. Our belief is that both versions of the story have affected characters in some way, but we don’t require you to be familiar with every Sailor Moon version.
