==Worldview==
===World===
The word "Tarsylia"(塔希里亞) means "Dual World"(雙重世界) in the Saint-Elf language(聖精靈語). Tarsylia in the broad sense refers to the entire known world, including Material Realm, Upper Realm, Lower Realm and other Realms(界域); Tarsylia in the narrow sense only refers to the Material Realm.

====Realms====
"Realm"(界域) refers to each Realm that exists in Tarsylia. All Realms are generated through "Three seeds"(三個種子).

'''Upper Realm'''

The Upper Realm(上層界), called Heaven(天界) and Paradise(天堂) by Humans, is located in the outer layer of the world of Tarsylia. This Realm comes from the part of The Third Consciousness(第三意識). The corresponding Realm is Lower Realm(下層界).

The gods reside in this realm.

'''Material Realm'''

Material Realm(主物質界) originates from The Second Consciousness(第二意識), its material basis comes from the Four Elemental Realms(四大元素界), and the energy comes from the Four Spiritual Realms(四大靈界).

There are two inhabited lands in Material Realm, namely Gaspar continent(加斯帕爾大陸) and Lakdossa Island(拉克多薩島), and the rest are all seas.

'''Lower Realm'''

The Lower Realm(下層界), also known as Abyss(深淵), also known as Hell(地域) by Humans, is located in the outer layer of the world of Tarsylia. It is a Realm formed by the No. 1 Splitting individual "Ring of Cause and Effect-Balsetu"(因果之環巴爾瑟圖茲) of The First Consciousness(第一意識) as its ontology. Devils(魔鬼) live in this Realm.

'''Four Spiritual Realms'''

"Four Spiritual Realms"(四大靈界) is the collective name for the four Realms: Rainbow-Islands Spirit Realm(彩虹群島), Jungle Spirit Realm(大叢林), Endless Sea Spirit Realm(無盡海), and Myriadvalleys Crypt Spirit Realm(萬壑地穴). Spiritual Realms can only be reached in spirit form, and each Spiritual Realm is inhabited by powerful Gods who represent nature. After the death of a creature that believes in Nature Gods(自然神靈), the soul will go to one of the Spiritual Realms to be transformed into "Life Force"(生命力) and re-infused into Tarsylia.

It is the endless Sea Of Life(生命之海), the destination of the souls of Aquatic organisms(水生生物) after death. It is rumored that the souls of Dragons(龍) will also go here after death - so far it is just a rumor. The Great Whale Shida(巨鯨西達) rules this place.
*'''Myriadvalleys Crypt Spirit Realm''' – Myriadvalleys Crypt Spirit Realm is one of the Four Spiritual Realms. It is a dark cave that contains the mountains. It is the destination of the souls of creatures such as Dwarf, Gnome, and Giant(巨人) after death. The Mountains God Toca(群山之神銅卡) rules this place, and it is rumored that at the bottom of the cave, Araton's soul is being reborn.

'''Four Elemental Realms'''

Four Elemental Realms(四大元素界) include Earth Elemental Realm(土元素界), Air Elemental Realm(風元素界), Water Elemental Realm(水元素界) and Fire Elemental Realm(火元素界). Four Elemental Realms not only provide the basic materials composed of Material Realm(主物質界), but are also the Realm where Elemental creatures(元素生物) live.<ref>{{Cite book | author = 吳淼 | editor =  | title = 塔希里亞故事集II | location = China | publisher = 接力出版社 | date = January 1, 2009 | pages =  | isbn = 9787544805537 | accessdate =  | url = https://www.sanmin.com.tw/product/index/000869829 | language = Chinese | quote =  }}</ref>

===Chronology===
===Country===
'''Gaspar Empire'''

The Gaspar Empire(加斯帕爾帝國), referred to as the Empire(帝國), was a huge empire that once unified the Humans, but gradually declined at the end of The second epoch(第二紀). The third epoch(第三紀), its territory is only the overseas Lakdossa Island(拉克多薩島), and the only remaining fortress on the Gaspar continent - Brokenblade Fortress(斷刃要塞) , whose symbol is the Black Crown(黑色王冠).

'''Shidal Trade Federation'''

Shidal Trade Federation(希達爾商貿聯邦) is a federal country controlled by the Big Four business group(四大商團). It can also be referred to as Shidal(希達爾), Trade Federation(商貿聯邦) or Federation(聯邦). The Shidal Trade Federation is based on trade, so it attaches great importance to credibility and seeks the greatest benefits by any means necessary. The Shidal Trade Federation controls much of the central part of the Gaspar continent(加斯帕爾大陸), and its symbol is the Golden Dagger(金色短劍).

'''Skavia'''

Skavia(斯卡維亞), also known as the Country Of Plateau(高原之國), is a poor and decadent country ruled by the incompetent Barpres family, whose symbol is Gray Wolf Head(灰色狼頭). Most of Skavia's territory is located on the Tonar Plateau(托納爾高原) in the southern part of the continent. The terrain is difficult and easy to defend but difficult to attack. The capital is Keladit(凱拉蒂特).

===Species===
There are many creatures in the world of Tarsylia, which are divided into humanoids(類人生物), Demi-humans(亞人生物), Transfinites(超限生物), Magical Creatures(魔法生物), Elemental creatures(元素生物), etc.

====Humanoids====
'''Human'''

Humans are one of the intelligent species living in the Material Realm(主物質界). They are the product of a compromise between the Upper Realm(上層界), Lower Realm(下層界) and Jungle Spirit Realm(大叢林), and almost dominate the entire Material Realm.<ref>{{Cite book | author = 吴淼  | editor =  | title = 塔希里亚故事集6 | location = China | publisher = 接力出版社 | date = June 1, 2013 | pages =  | isbn = 978-7544829601 | accessdate =  | url = https://www.amazon.com/-/zh_TW/%E5%90%B4%E6%B7%BC/dp/B00DLVSG38 | language = Chinese | quote =  }}</ref>

Human(人類)'s close relative is Barbarian(蠻人).

*'''Barbarian'''
Barbarians are one of the intelligent species in the Material Realm. They are close relatives of humans, but are physically stronger than humans. The barbarians living in Northland(北地) and Skavia(斯卡維亞) were called Northland Barbarians(北地蠻人) and Mountain Barbarians(高山蠻人) respectively.

'''Elf'''

Elf(精靈) is one of the intelligent species of the Material Realm, derived from Angel(天使) who was transformed to adapt to the density of the Material Realm. Some of them still firmly believe in Heavenly Father(天父) and live in Emerald Paradise(翡翠天堂). In order to emphasize their specialness, they call themselves "Saint-Elf"(聖精靈).
Nowadays, the term "Elf" refers more to the Elfs scattered throughout Tarsylia except Saint-Elf. They are not recognized by Saint-Elf and most of them live a life without fighting against the world.

*'''Saint-Elf'''
Saint-Elf is one of the intelligent species in the Material Realm and one of the main branches of Elf. Because this community settled in Elf Holy Mountain(精靈聖山) more fanatically adheres to the belief of the Heavenly Father and considers itself superior to human beings, it calls itself "Saint-Elf". This has also led to the current term "Elf", which more refers to other Elfs scattered throughout Tahilia except Saint-Elf.

'''Dwarf'''

Dwarf(矮人) is one of the intelligent species living in the Material Realm and has an independent kingdom in Northland. There are 627 orthodox Dwarf Clanships, and meetings are held in the capital - Light of Araton(阿拉頓之光). In addition, those ethnic groups or individuals who do not participate in the Dwarf Council(矮人會議) and are scattered outside are called Wild-Dwarf(野矮人).
*'''Wild-Dwarf'''
Wild-Dwarf refers to the Dwarf tribe scattered outside the Dwarven Kingdom(矮人王國) and does not belong to the 627 Clanships of the Dwarf Council. They are unwilling to accept the call of Araton(阿拉頓) and go to the capital - Light of Araton, preferring to stay in their existing homeland. In addition, orthodox Dwarfs who are exiled from the Clanship will also be called Wild-Dwarfs.

'''Gnome'''

Gnomes(侏儒) are an intelligent species living in the main material world. They are famous for possessing a variety of "Black Technology". They mostly live in Foureyes Grape City(四眼葡萄城).

'''Goblin'''

Goblin(地精) is one of the intelligent species living in the Material Realm and has a strong reproductive capacity. Goblin are usually considered to have low intelligence and insufficient force, but they are willing to obey the strong, so they are often used as slaves by various powerful races. Goblin also has many subspecies such as Hobgoblin(大地精), Bugbear(熊地精), etc. Among them, Bugbear is stronger and smarter, while Silvercup Winery(白銀杯酒廠)'s Silvercup-Goblin(銀杯族地精) has a level of civilization that far exceeds other Goblin.

'''Demonborn'''

Demonborn(魔裔) is the common name for people with demon blood, also known as "Tiefling"(泰夫林). Wizards have verified that the earliest Demonborn was born through "Primitive Symbiosis"(原始共生), but it is still a mystery who carried out such a large-scale cultivation ceremony in ancient times.

'''Vampire'''

"Vampire"(吸血鬼) is not a race, but a collective name for a class of creatures transformed through Vampirepact(吸血鬼契约). Humans believe that vampires are the sharp teeth of Archaic-Titan(始祖泰坦) "Devour the Tyrant"(吞噬暴君), but this is just a legend.<ref>{{Cite book | author = 吳淼 | editor =  | title = 塔希里亞故事集：秘典 | location = China | publisher = 接力出版社 | date = March 31, 2020 | pages =  | isbn = 9787544863384 | accessdate =  | url = https://www.sanmin.com.tw/product/index/007666855 | language = Chinese | quote =  }}</ref>

====Transfinites====
'''Gods'''

Gods(眾神) are conscious creatures(意識體) who live in the Upper Realm and originated from The Third Consciousness. Gods strengthen themselves by absorbing the souls of believers, and rely on the believers' devout faith to exert power in the Material Realm. If certain boundaries are crossed and power is pursued by any means, Gods will fall and eventually transform into 
Demons(惡魔).

'''Devil'''

Devils(魔鬼) are conscious creatures that live in the Lower Realm, originating from The First Consciousness(第一意識). In the Age of Chaos(混亂時代), the Gods called them Lnfiltrator, and in the Age of Gods(眾神時代), the church deliberately confused them with "Demons".

'''Demon'''

The earliest Demons(惡魔) were mainly fallen gods, including "God of Radiance"(光輝之神) and "God's Punisher - Arbas"(神罰者阿爾巴斯), etc., who fell late in the First Creation War(第一次創世戰爭). After the Second Creation War(第二次創世戰爭), the power of Demons gradually rose, attracting the attention of Gods and Devils.
