From the creator
Built as more than a setting
Zenita became a world with its own memory, contradictions, cultures, histories, and unanswered questions. The stories are the doors through which that world may be entered.
Christopher D. Eldridge began developing Zenita as the setting for his novels and expanded it into a deeper body of history, mythology, character, and imaginative worldbuilding.
