Everything

Two groups in particular have focused on finding the Hollow Earth: the Society of Ether and the Technocratic Void Engineers. The first group wants to explore it, and the second wants to seal it up forever. For obvious reasons, this place is dangerous – not only because it’s too random for an ordered world but because hidden, often forbidden, knowledge, tends to wind up there. Before and during World War II, a group called the Thule Gesellschaft tried to bolster the Nazi forces with secrets from the Hollow Earth. Supposedly, a combined effort between the VEs and the Etherites managed to quash that effort, though with high costs to all parties involved. The nature of those secrets remains… well, secret. The archives of both groups, it’s said, contain stories of lost races, amazing adventures, and things best left beyond the reach of mortal men.

And then there’s the Zone that remained an esoteric secret until recently but has since become a fulcrum for the mortal world: the Digital Web, a metaphysical reflection of the Internet. As theoretically boundless as the human imagination, this region began as a hazy, unformatted sector fading in and out of existence. Within the last few decades, though, it’s swelled to a point where even its most dedicated travelers don’t know where… or if… it ever ends.
