Earth (planet)

Earth is the most commonly used name for the third planet of the star known as Sol. It has one natural satellite, commonly known as Luna (which, if Anne is to be believed, is inhabited by Moon-Polishers). It is the homeworld of the human race as we know it, though in Killdeer and the Tales of Anosir, humans have voyaged to the stars and colonized many other planets.

Earth has several landmasses, but the majority of its surface area is covered by water. The majority of this is saline oceans and seas. The land and seas flourish with a variety of life forms besides humans (including fish of all kinds), as Earth lies within Sol's habitable zone. It is probable, however, that with wars, pollution, famine and other difficulties, the life on the planet might very well need to look to the stars, and far-off worlds in the future to survive.

The Chronicles of Glenscar take place on Earth, a few centuries prior to our present day.
