In the Second Outer Belt, far to the left of the known Earth, lies the vast Mazuic Ocean, a lightless sea without a sun. Its waters move like liquid glass, filled with drifting islands of coral metal and glowing abyssal storms. The Mazuic are an ancient underwater people who live in silence beneath these depths. Their bodies shimmer in shifting tones of green, blue, and red, blending with the currents of their ocean world. They have no cities on land, only vast submerged spirals of stone and living coral that stretch into the deepest trenches. It is said the Mazuic were born when the first oceans of creation remembered themselves. They can sense vibrations across entire continents of water and communicate through pulses of color that ripple through the sea. Deep beneath the ocean floor lies the Core Trench, where the oldest Mazuic sleep in crystalline chambers. Legends claim they guard a sealed passage to older worlds beyond the Second Belt. When the ocean turns red at night, it is believed the Mazuic are gathering, preparing for movements across the hidden currents between worlds.
