Geography/Description

The Shardspace is a dimension full of fractal dark-red crystals that are borderline incomprehensible to the human mind.

It is at least semi-virtual space where real distances are inconsistent with distance traveled. How much of it is physical, and degree of interaction with the real physical space is questionable.

The Shardspace is divided into islands over bottomless darkness. Each island represent specific shard and its host, and houses Endbringer-like shard-avatar. Islands can be merged or bridged by power interactions in real-space.

The parahumans inside the shardspace are constantly send out visible pings of light to the avatars of their agents. The intensity of pings seems to vary depending on distance or their mental state.
