Don't you know Lumiere? Everything is Canon! It's just a question of if it manages to crawl it's way up from the depths of alternate universes into the main verse.

As Raguna-blade says, it's all part of the meta of Daros itself, or better explained: THE DAROS NUCLEOUS!
Basically, all my stories (except a few) happens in Daros PRIME, AKA "MOST CANON SHIT IN THE UNIVERSE (LITERALLY)". From there we get alternative timelines, all part of the present or future which is by default never defined. Only the past has a so called "alpha" timeline, everything forwards is up for grabs of the whims and ideas of reality itself. Or it's random. Or some other possibility. Existing in those temporal streams are what-ifs and twists and turns of story.
Heck because of our actions already, Route A from the prologue of Terrene Spire is now one of these shed BETA timelines, running their course until causality consumes them to respend the energy into more infinite potential timelines.
Now, sometimes events so big happen that reality itself needs to shed to keep functioning. These are the alternative timelines, where things happen in ways that aren't defined as PRIME or "full canon". This is where alternate growth paths for reality sit. The fundamental functions of daros might be off. Slagmar might not even exist. Everyone could be made out of earwax and toe bones! It's a riot of possibility out there.
Coincidentally, Crystal Rave and Mineral Caper, along with my younger design for Daros, is now Alternate Timeline.
This has been, a tiny Darosian Metaphysical Explanation (DME).

I met Dex on MSPAFA, so I have it on good authority that he did, indeed, read homestuck.
I don't exactly remember how we became steam friends but that was where it happened.

Dex, the way you have an entire multiverse set up is both amazing and awe inspiring to me. It is the sign of a great creative spark, and I am hoping to see that spark start more flames, so that this universe may continue to grow and expand indefinitely.As Raguna-blade says, it's all part of the meta of Daros itself, or better explained: THE DAROS NUCLEOUS!

So, traveling merchants. Who would actually take up that job in an area where you´re likely to be terminated for simply not belonging to any of the factions, and what would they trade in? What sort of stuff has any value in these forsaken lands.

you guys sure do love to dig for spoilers.
Yeah man. The thirst for more setting info is real. It's your fault. You made the mistake of making an interesting setting and lovable characters.
How dare you.

I like this piece of advice for some reason.
Also, I'm stealing the above action.
[X] Confused fits with me, however I somehow doubt the helpdesk will be a greater help on that front then a freaking tutorial
-[X] Do we even have a helpdesk here? I mean there are only the two of us here right?

Your art always leaves me in awe, dex.
With his Halo, Satsuma's head thing makes the same symbol as on his clothing. Daeva has a circle.
We should keep an eye out for similiar symbols, as it might help us see what used to be Orange - and so might contain items or creatures useful to us.

GAZE UPON OLD MAN NOIR'S FANART, DRAWN BY THE ILLUSTRIOUS @King_Rule!
Character Profile: Umbra Noir, AKA "Old Man Noir"
Spectrum Shattered and there was Black. The Black faction is unusual among the ghost factions in that there is only one ghost in this faction, a ghost named Umbra Noir. As the only Black Ghost that has ever existed, he contains the power of an entire color in the body of one ghost, and as a result is almost unimaginably powerful. His shell is a completely pitch-black mannequin wearing a suit and tie, and he walks with a cane, the only sign of his advanced age. Even ghosts can age after going enough time without reviving, their ectoplasm beginning to shrivel without the renewal of their faction's sarcophagus. This makes him rather weak in terms of physical ability, though he makes up for his with fearsome darkness and shadow manipulation powers, shields of black magic, and the unusual ability to leech the life force from attackers. He carries his surprisingly light coffin everywhere he goes.
Umbra, despite his color having connotations of darkness and death in the eyes of non-ghosts, actually isn't that bad a person. He is known to be cordial and polite, and is a master of staying calm even in the most desperate situations. He tends to use his life-leeching powers to eliminate foes non-lethally, putting them into a short coma. It's perhaps because of his serene nature that he hasn't turned into an Eishalon yet, despite being alive for over 10,000 years without interruption.
However, he does have his flaws. After thousands of years of continued success, he has begun to become overconfident in his powers. He tends to underestimate his opponents, which once resulted in his sarcophagus being critically damaged. Furthermore, after meeting thousands upon thousands of ghosts that not only conformed to type, but all wanted to kill him simply for not wanting to be part of his faction, Umbra has grown suspicious and distrustful of all other ghosts, even abridging his "non-lethal takedown" rule for them, since they can just come back from the dead. Zest will have a hard time allying with this curmudgeon, and if he doesn't choose his words carefully, he could get a shadowy tendril through the chest.
To add to this, while Old Man Noir still retains much of his cordial charm, something has been eating away at him. Namely, his days are numbered. Remember when I said that his sarcophagus was critically damaged? That was the result of a massive Red assault on his faction stronghold, the Palace of Night, 500 years ago. The Red soldiers, while individually weak compared to his magical might, were a force to be reckoned with in large numbers. They managed, after sustaining massive casualties, to drive him away from his own fortress, forcing him to teleport out of the area. With the Palace of Night at their mercy, they burned the elegant building to the ground. HIs sarcophagus was the only thing that survived the blaze, and it was damaged to the point where it was doubtful it could handle another revival. With his stronghold burnt to the ground, and a damaged sarcophagus, Umbra has been roaming the world, searching for something, anything that can fix the Black faction's sarcophagus. Eventually, his ectoplasm will degrade into nothing, and his halo will lay on the ground, silent. And that's if something else doesn't do him in first; while he may be the most powerful single ghost, there are things more powerful than even him.
The rest of the world waits in terror for Noir to finally give up his fruitless quest, for if he does, the Eishalon that will be born will eclipse all others in power to such an extreme degree that it could threaten the entire planet.
