Looming above the clouds of the Ruin Continent are the spires and peaks that largely make up the sky kingdom of Antares. Surrounding its base is an enormous wall to keep surface-dwelling trespassers from entering the realm and causing mischief. For this reason, few direct attacks have ever been made on Antares itself; instead, the highly mobile hordes of army Antareans have often traveled to wage war and deter any moves by enemy Proteans.

Inside the walls, the Antarean world is not dissimilar in functionality from an ant colony. Each community is a bit like a hive, each specializing in a task, and with a dominant queen in control. Soldier communities are found nearest the outer walls, in place to protect the far fewer and critical leader communities (which are generally responsible for spreading genetic diversity throughout the realm). Most numerous of all, worker communities are spread throughout Antares to provide food and maintenance.
