Summary
Thespara is a forested world within a broader system, rich with bioluminescent life and marked by older hidden infrastructure. *1
Geography
Thespara is marked by sprawling forests, towering trees, and abundant wildlife, with a living environment that includes Ikovia trees, Tellia trees, Galopia berries, and molaths. It belongs to a broader system linked to the old gates, and its scale is widened by the Thespara Gateway Station, hundreds of dwarf planets, hidden research bases, and Engineering Association workshops spread through the deeper woods. *1 *2 *3 *4 *5
The Voice identifies Thespara as the homeworld of the Slinks and the site of the forest nation of Trithalos. *6
History
Thespara was one of the worlds shaped by ancient intervention in the development and protection of the Slinks. Much of its deeper past survives in hidden Luminari facilities, sealed recordings, and quiet research culture rather than in openly shared public history. That buried history keeps Thespara tied both to the Vanished and to later gate-route mysteries in the wider struggle. The world is also closely tied to the Glorious Chieftain, who rules from Trithalos, and to the inventive Slink culture represented by the Engineering Association of Thespara. *1 *6 *7 *8
