|Introduction='''Woncu''' is the ~~primordial~~ realm of darkness, ~~a vast expanse that exists outside~~ the ~~physical world~~ of [[~~Adaris~~]]. Woncu ~~is a place where~~ darkness is a tangible force~~. Within Woncu, light does not exist, there is no sun, no stars, only the shifting of shadow~~.

|Introduction='''Woncu''' is the realm of darkness, the realm of [[Náiluv]], the [[Primordial Spirit]] of darkness. It lies beside [[Dalel]], opposite [[Qaaniguaq]], the realm of light. No light exists in Woncu, and darkness there is a tangible force.

|Etymology=Woncu is the ~~native~~ word for "~~nightfall~~."

|Etymology=''Woncu'' is the [[Bušing]] word for "evening".

|History=~~Woncu was formed when~~ [[Náiluv]], the [[~~primordial spirit~~]] of ~~darkness, emerged from the~~ [[~~Napadéh~~]]. ~~As the counterpart to~~ [[~~Qaaniguaq~~]], the ~~realm~~ of ~~light~~.

|History=Darkness has existed since the emergence of [[Náiluv]] in the [[Napadéh]]. During the [[Era of Isolation]] it fell on [[Dalel]] but had no place of its own. Woncu formed when Náiluv and [[Tñarilu]] drew darkness and light apart, ending the Era of Isolation. It lies on one side of Dalel, opposite Qaaniguaq.

|Geography=Woncu is a world without light. Those who ~~dwell here do not navigate~~ by sight~~, but through a sense of reverberations~~.

|Geography=Woncu is a world without light. Those who live there find their way by sound and reverberation rather than sight.

|Climate=Woncu has no sun, moon, or weather in the ~~traditional~~ sense.

|Climate=Woncu has no sun, moon, or weather in the usual sense.

|~~Notable Settlements~~=~~Though light does not exist in~~ Woncu, ~~civilization thrives without it~~. ~~The sophants~~ of ~~Woncu do not~~ see in the ~~way mortals~~ do; ~~instead,~~ they perceive through vibration, sound, movement, and presence, ~~making~~ their ~~cities and~~ structures ~~alien~~ to those accustomed to ~~sight~~.

|Inhabitants=Woncu is home to the [[Nuworno]], the warden race of Náiluv, and to other peoples. None of its inhabitants see as the peoples of Dalel do; they perceive through vibration, sound, movement and presence.

|Native Spirits=[[Náiluv]] dwells in Woncu.

|Notable Settlements=Woncu has cities. Built by peoples who perceive without sight, their structures are unfamiliar to those accustomed to light.
