Pelagia's geography cannot be mapped in mortal terms. What appears still may flow; what seems shallow may plunge into the deep. Its only constants are motion and depth—layered like a melody that never ends, harmonized by the will of water itself.

|Inhabitants=The native inhabitants of Pelagia are not corporeal in the traditional sense. Within this realm of pure water and resonance, sapient life manifests as fluidic consciousness—entities shaped by currents, memory, and harmonic flow. These sophants do not build, age, or die as material beings do, but exist in constant transformation, guided by the essence of Jala.

=== Liraeth – Memory-Current Being ===
The Liraeth are sentient expressions of memory and light, their forms composed of translucent ribbons of structured water. They manifest as fleeting aquatic silhouettes—sometimes resembling flowing fish, sometimes formless veils. Each Liraeth is a vessel of ancient experiences, their consciousness flowing between whirlpools of recollection and intention.

Liraeth serve as guides, lore-bearers, and emissaries of emotional resonance. They are drawn to moments of transformation, often appearing during acts of healing, reflection, or rebirth.

=== Thal’kai – Abyssal Resonant Intelligences ===
The Thal’kai are colossal, slow-thinking intelligences that dwell in the deepest reaches of Pelagia. Their forms are not bound to a single structure, but emerge across trench-lines, thermal vents, and sediment flows. Some appear as moving coral towers; others are no more than pulses of pressure, distributed across miles of current.
