QUESTIONS ANSWERED.

Has anyone asked me any questions about Jariyala? Actually, yes… But only family and some friends. Most of these questions are ones that I think would be asked, so, I’ll just answer them here.

Read tags before reading this if you’re here for Saku content! This post doesn’t actually have anything to do with Sakuverse, I just mentioned him lol

What is ‘The String Of Jariyala’?

It’s complicated. Years, millennias ago, the Gods of Dochke created the first planet ever (to be known by them), Crenat. This planet was beautiful. Trees covered the lands, pools of water peppered across the plains and mountains. It was luxury, paradise. It was so beautiful, they wanted more planets like this. 27 total planets were created over the course of 900 years, each one having different people, cultures, landscapes, yet all of them were gorgeous. The greenery, the clear water, the birds that flew overhead. It was perfection.

But, of course, bad people must revoke others pleasure. Unknown beings came and attempted to colonise these planes, unaware of the almighty God, Callitri. Her power was like no other, she was the creator of Jariyala and majority of its contents. She created the other Gods using matter of space. She was the ultimate creator. It seemed like they wanted to challenge that, though.

Liviam, the person leading the attack on Jariyala taunted Callitri — leading to a battle. It was lengthy and tense, though the people on Crenat (where the battle took place) did not worry as they knew Callitri always came out victorious. And that she did, yet her power was stripped from her being. No more planets or supernatural life could be created, leaving the 27 planets to stand as they were.

There was another problem though. With the arrival of Liviam and her ‘minions’ from a different time line and dimension, it broke the time string in Jariyala. Time splits and threads connecting and straying from the planets were now visible. Although it created a fine piece of art, the time gaps were presumptuously dangerous.

What’s Vaularan and why is it important?

Vaularan is not technically anymore important than the other planets, though it’s the planet I’ve been putting the most care into. I don’t know why I’m so attached to it, I just am…

Who is Callitri?

A star. One singular star in an epitome of darkness. The only source of hope, the only light, the only life. This star developed for billions of years, until it finally exploded and a being was born. A woman. Long, white hair, pale skin, rose tinted cheeks. A radiating complexion, delicate features. She was Callitri.

Who are the Gods of Dochke?

Ah~ I couldn’t possibly answer this all in one post. Their lore and stories are so incredibly lengthy, I’d have to make a post for each individual God! In short, they are all ‘humans’ born from Solar matter. All of them contributed to the making of Jariyala, and each God has at lease one planet to their name. There are 11 Gods total. There is also a superstition with the people that the reason Jariyala was invaded was because they didn’t have an even number of Gods.

Why are you making a fantasy world?

To occupy myself for the next decade.

How long have you been doing it for?

Around 4-5 months. Not super long, although, I feel as if my progress in that time is quite commendable.

Do they speak English in Jariyala?

No. I am working on a universal language for them called ‘Faytir’.

How do you come up with names for planets, languages, people, etc.?

I’ll be honest… I just put a bunch of letters on a page and combine them together LOL. It usually comes out with a good name, though I should’ve really started the language first as I’ve made it harder for myself.

Are you going to turn the story of Jariyala into a book?

Hm. I have thought about it, yet I’m still not so sure. I think I’d have to really think about it. But, the chances of me doing so are low.

What made you want to start a fantasy world?

*Sigh*. I listen to a lot of ASMR boyfriend type audios on YouTube… yes, I know. It’s strange. But, if I didn’t, I wouldn’t of started doing this. There’s this one VA called @/zsakuva, his story audios are INSANELY good btw. He focuses more on lore and not gushy mushy romance, so I’d recommend checking him out! But, yes, Saku has been making his own world for 10 years I believe? And the amount of progress he’s made and the WORLD he’s made is fascinating. I was so unbelievably impressed with what he has done, and my mind was like ‘woahhh I wanna do that!’. So, here I am! Thank you, Saku! (If he for some reason sees this plsplspls I need another Xanthus audio… his story is so interesting!)

Do they have holidays like Earth do?

Yes! But, not like Christmas and Halloween and all the other corny, expensive holidays.

Each year, in June (I haven’t thought of names for months yet), they have the ‘Soldena Xyomen’ [pronounced sul•den•uh uhks•yo•men]. The Soldena Xyomen translates to ‘Summer Starting’ and the event is literally that. The Jariyalan’s LOVE soldena. The food, the dancing, the performances. Everything about soldena is exciting for them. So, the seventh Dochken God (Ywoei) decided to make it a holiday.

Another large holiday is the opposite of Soldena Xyomen, it’s Kaopana Xyomen (Winter Starting). Again, they love kaopana for the same reasons they love soldena. There are more holidays, but they’re still a WIP.

So, that’s all the questions I can think of for now! If anymore get asked, then I will add them to this list.

THE STRING OF JARIYALA - A JOURNEY OF CREATION.

Only a couple of months have I been creating my own fantasy world, and an interesting few months have they been. I enjoyed spending personal time by putting my ideas onto paper and watching my planet, Vaularan come together. Yet, I still felt an air of something missing whenever I’d dive into my creative mind. I wanted to share it with people, I wanted other people to join me on my journey of creating Jariyala and its contents. Thus, the jariyala-string Tumblr has been birthed!

Hi! I’m Adoley, a fantasy world builder from England!

I have always found the idea of making my own special place fascinating, yet I never started doing it. Until recently. As said in the first section of this post, I am making a world called ‘Jariyala’. I have created this Tumblr so people can experience this with me and join me on my journey of creation. If you would like to know more about Jariyala, how it came to be, it’s inner planets and more, then please press follow as I will be making posts on here about all of the above.

I am fairly new to Tumblr, so I don’t really know how it works… but I’m sure I can figure that out!

But, for now, please feel free to hit follow and accompany me on my journey.

are the gods immortal? and if a human gets sent to treniyir do they eventually die there or do they live forever??

To answer your first question…Yes, the Gods are immortal. However, if they are fatally attacked by another being then they are capable of dying.

As for your second question, it depends on the person’s situation; if they are sent there after they die on another planet, then yes they live there forever.

BUT if they’re sent there whilst they’re still alive, they will age and eventually die. no gods know where people go when they die on Treniyir, not even Callitri knows.

♢CALLITRI - THE FIRST GOD OF DOCHKE☆

Let me introduce you to Callitri, the God that started it all. The Almighty God, The Creator, The All-Knowing. Callitri.

Glossary at the end.

A star. One bright, luminous star by itself in the desolate expanse of space. The only light, the only sign of life by herself.

She waited for years, decades, millennias to finally be released from the confines of the cage she seemed to be in. Although she appeared to shine bright, all she truly wanted was to escape. So, she waited for something. Anything. But, she was rewarded with nothing.

What had she done in, maybe, a past life to deserve this torture? There was a wide canvas in front of her, waiting to be painted with her creations of planets and stars.

She couldn’t take it anymore, she needed out. With all her might, she exploded the star with a great flash of light. All the debris and left matter from the star created more. Pieces of shining rock scattered throughout the once pitch black space. And even though it was better than what she had, she still felt alone.

It went on like that for years; she’d have to find comfort in what she had — nothing. She’d find herself looking around at the lifeless, glowing stars, wishing they were more. Until she finally understood, if she wanted something more then she’d have to do that herself. She was the only living thing there, she was the only one capable of making more life. More things to keep her company, other than the lifeless stars.

Callitri selected one star that really stood out to her, it was bright, shining, almost as if it was calling her. As she moved closer, the star shined brighter and brighter; slowly blinding her. With a snap of her fingers, it exploded, just as her star did. The impact of the explosion shot her back, knocking the wind out of her lungs. This intrigued her even more, she knew she had picked the right star to be her first and new friend. The star named Nyrienti.

They got along very well, conversation flowed easily. She was curious as to how he understood her and spoke the language she would mumble to herself in the darkness. He simply stated that he liked listening to her. Listening to her rambles, her singing, it was all very endearing.

The two of them had similar minds, and they mutually agreed that it was time to paint the canvas in front of them. Callitri formed a planet, Nyrienti formed a planet.

Callitri took much care with her ‘child’, whom she named Crenat. She treated it as a living being, as she did with all the other life on the terrain. The *Kornitye trees, the **chrymontenya’s, the water lakes and rivers that weaved and winded through the plains and mountainous area. She looked after it all, keeping it in good condition, making sure everything stayed alive.

It had been a few years since Crenat was created, and Callitri wanted others to experience it; it was too beautiful to keep to herself. It’d be selfish to not share her creation with others, and so she did.

Using the flowers and ground around her, she formed people. Instantly, they started exploring, making villages, buildings and relishing in the fact that they had a place to call home. Everyday, they thanked Callitri, their ***Dochke, for giving them the opportunity to live and experience life on Crenat. They showered her with gifts and praises, talking about how amazing she was. She took it all with a smile and a warm heart.

There was one person who stuck out to her, though. His name is not known among the people or other Gods, apart from Nyrienti.

Callitri was infatuated with him, his hair, his freckles, his long eyelashes that fluttered against his cheeks as he felt the wind pass by him. It was safe to say, she was falling in love with this man. And Nyrienti hated it.

In his eyes, Nyrienti was there before him. He was there FAR before this ‘commoner’ was. How could Callitri be so blind to the truth? The truth that Nyrienti was better than this man.

Callitri simply carried on with her doe eyes when near him and fell in love with him deeper.

Good things must always come to an end. Callitri was finally in a relationship with the man, he kept her happy, he kept her going.

Every morning, Callitri would visit him at his humble abode. She would bring homemade food, art she had made for him. It was routine for them.

She arrived at his house to find the door ajar. She thought it was strange, but quickly brushed it off. As she stepped foot inside his house, a gasp escaped her lips as the fresh ****halkin and artistry fell to the floor.

Her lover. Oh, her dear lover, lifeless on the floor. Unmoving. And, who else was there? Nyrienti. Towering over his still form, heaving and panting as he kept his head cast down.

The scene was gruesome, Callitri couldn’t help but cry as waterfalls erupted from her delicate eyes. The eyes that once looked at Nyrienti with so much adoration and warmth were now filled with agony and hate.

How could she miss the signs? Looking back on it, ‘twas obvious Nyrienti had something against her love, how could she be so foolish?

Curses and hate exited her mouth as she banished the man to his planet to stay, Treniyir.

She was the almighty God. Which technically meant she should give everyone a second chance, that’s how she thought anyway.

After decades of radio silence from Nyrienti, she finally visited him.

She had never set foot on Treniyir, and to say she was shocked would be an understatement. It was dark, almost pitch black; the only light coming from the star dust that lay across the vast expanse of the planet. It was mostly flat, not many bumps or mountains on the terrain.

She spotted Nyrienti almost immediately, crumpled on the floor, looking down.

He looked defeated, crushed.

He asked her why she was there, to which she responded with the now famous quote throughout Jariyala:

“Hate is not in my nature, it should not be in anyones. Although I am hurt by what you did to my love, everyone deserves a second chance. But, might I warn you, if you disobey my trust once more, you shall never see my face again„

And with that, she gave him one last chance. She blessed him with the role of ‘gatekeeper’ as the two of them agreed, Treniyir would be a place where *****lost souls shall go.

Although she was hurt greatly by Nyrienti’s actions, she gave him a chance to redeem himself — to which he did.

The people of Jariyala have never seen Callitri’s face, yet, she is believed to be beautiful like her planets.

Like mother, like child.

GLOSSARY

*Kornitye — The first trees to be on any planet in Jariyala. The name means ‘beginning’ or ‘new’.

**Chrymontenya’s — Means ‘beauty’, the first flowers to be on any planet in Jariyala.

***Dochke — Means ‘creator’ or ‘creation’. Hence why the Gods are called ‘The Gods of Dochke’.

****Halkin — A traditional food in Crenat, sort of like Japanese gyoza.

*****Lost souls — They are people that have disobeyed the word of Callitri. If they have done bad in their life, then — once they die — they get sent to the desolate land of Treniyir. Or, if they’ve been so bad, they will be sent there in the middle of their life and spend the rest of eternity there.
