Location from RWBY by Rooster Teeth
An otherworldly fairy-tale dimension beneath Remnant — a surreal landscape of talking animals, impossible geometry, and existential transformation.
The Ever After is not Remnant. It's the place beneath the place — a dimension accessed by falling through the void after Atlas crashed, and it operates on fairy-tale logic rather than physics. The landscape shifts between biomes that feel like storybook illustrations given depth: paper-thin trees that fold when touched, oceans that flow upward, creatures that speak in riddles and take offense at unexpected things. Colors are saturated beyond natural, skies change based on narrative mood, and the rules are consistent only in their inconsistency. The inhabitants are Afterans — beings who each have a specific Purpose they fulfill in an endless cycle of death and rebirth through the Great Tree. They don't understand the concept of choosing to be something other than what you were made to be. For Ruby and her friends, falling into the Ever After is a psychological crucible — a place that forces them to confront who they are versus who they think they should be. It's beautiful, hostile, and deeply weird.
A surreal pocket dimension accessed by falling through the void between Remnant and its reflections — a whimsical, Alice-in-Wonderland-inspired realm where the rules of reality are suggestions. Floating islands, impossible geometry, trees with candy-colored leaves, and creatures called Afterans who each embody a single purpose. The landscape shifts between enchanting and unsettling — pastel beauty masking existential horror. The Great Tree at its center grants transformation and rebirth.
