Twin Worlds

Dahna and Rena, two halves of one failed planet, finally fused into the New World.

The Twin Worlds is the name given to the world network of Tales of Arise, a universal-like plane comprising the worlds of Dahna and Rena. The term refers to the two as parts of a whole, but is rarely used because it erases the hierarchy separating them.

Background

Rena and Dahna were supposed to be born as one planet, but the process failed midway and the world was born as two separate planets. Their astral energy was split unevenly: Dahna's was dispersed and scattered throughout the planet, while Rena's was concentrated in the core, creating the sentient Great Astral Spirit. The Spirit originally wanted to finish combining the separated worlds by absorbing both planets' energy, but the more it absorbed the more it feared death, until its plan twisted into a hunger to consume all astral energy; after hollowing all of Rena it turned to Dahna.

Alphen's party tries to store the Spirit in the Renas Alma, Vholran Igniseri interrupts the ceremony, Shionne contains the Spirit within herself and Vholran destroys the Alma. Alphen then pleads with the collective will of Dahna, which absorbs all of Rena's astral energy, the Great Spirit included, and scatters it evenly across the planet, fusing the two into the New World. A new flower, in light pink and light blue, blooms across it to symbolize Dahna and Rena becoming one.
