Description

Kathris is a gentle, deceptive world. From orbit it looks like a dream: continents full of endlessly rippling grain, broken by crystalline rivers and still lakes. The air is mild, saturated with the scent of rye and hops. Rain is frequent but never violent.
Home world of: The Firebrands (chapter).

Fauna & Flora

Endlessly rippling grain, rye and hops, crystal-clear rivers with trout; bees in hives under the eaves and ravens that follow the mowing machines.

Population & Society

Some tens of millions in villages among the grain fields who brew beer, bake bread and meet strangers with suspicious friendliness: the world looks like a dream, and its people know that this is suspect. The Firebrands take their aspirants from the villages on the margins.
