Akekata
Akekata is a fantasy world being created by juhhmi. Most of the progress has been happening on the linguistic side which is being updated at juhhmi's Linguifex page while other material appears on his deviantART page.
Etymology
Name Akekata is taken from the language spoken in the Coast of Temples, Aoma, where it means "Divine Foundation". The word is an augmentative form of keka "continent" which again derives from keki "stone". The Aoman word, which was taken into use by Lightlisteners, refers both to the planet and the surrounding material solar system.
The northern and north-western people call their world Grundet (or Ground) which means "Shallow": A legend holds that ancient sailors escaped a cosmic cataclysm and crashed onto the only habitable shallow in the depths of the universal ocean, where the survivors were guided by three beacons Hol, Wod and Nom. It is most often used when talking only about the planet.
In Eastern Empire, the world is known as Neberku, "Place of Vortex", named after Vortex, the Second Creator and Divine Martyr, who according to Hallans gave their life when separating Light from Darkness and created Grundet as a side product.
Solar system
The system of Halla around the yellow main sequence star consists of two terrestrial planets and two gas giants.
Following information shows the results of preliminary measurements conducted by Mbyagh Tyelth, the first intercosmic traveler.
Halla
The central star, Halla, is categorized as a yellowish white G0 V star with a surface temperature around 5900 K. The star's radius is 1.3 solar radii and it's mass 1.1 solar masses.
The star represents the imprisoned Light for Lightlisteners while Hallans worship it as their main god.
Thul
The god of emotions and blood and the child of Flame and Stone, Thul is a hot, rocky planet orbiting Halla gravity-locked thus always facing it with the same side.
Grundet
The habitable world, table of the mass, radius, axial tilt (~10º),etc. left-handed spin
Him
moon with a highly eccentric orbit represents the eternal battle of Light and Darkness
Wodak
Thought as the god of beauty and the child of Sky and Ocean, Wodak is a gas giant orbiting Halla, contains the floating residence of god(dess) Wodak
Surumta
The god of destiny and the child of Life and Sky, Surumta is an icy moon orbiting Wodak. The moon has an oceanic layer beneath its surface. Some Lethusian explorers crashed their intermundane vessel through the ice and met with the local fauna.

Lord of Sky, Lord of Flame (Isle of Fire), Lord of Stone, Lord of Ocean, Lord of Death
Faceless, genderless, telepathically communicating beings which seem to able to take almost any physical form. Actually they only appear to take a form since they are masters in mind-penetration and mental manipulation.
Gods
Children of Lords, competing of worshippers on Grundret, some inhabit the outer planets or comets surrounding Halla. Hermaphrodites capable of autogamy as Noctu, god of fertility, demonstrated.

Spiritual world
Spiritual world is an infinite, ever-expanding multiverse in a cube lattice where each node contains a universe in it various phases thanks to a second (+more?) time dimension.
The barrier around Akekata was greatly weakened when gods attempted to enter the Spiritual world and harness its energy.
Aweroot
The universe node containing Akekatan cosmos is called Aweroot due to six vast columns (also called Aweroot) reaching from surface to the centre from all cardinal directions. You see, the node's surface is the interior surface of a sphere which deforms into the unfathomable Sea of Spirits where different reincarnations of the cosmos float as islands.
Millennial cycle works as a cosmic saving point which releases more Mysterium onto Grundet and generates divine events.
