Welcome to Eusia
This wiki exists to help collect, organize, and expand the ever-growing tapestry of stories, people, places, plots, mysteries, monsters, treasures, disasters, and absolutely brilliant ideas that make Eusia what it is.
The purpose of this wiki is simple:
- Make information easier to find.
- Make relationships between ideas easier to follow.
- Make it easier to contribute new content.
- Make it harder for excellent ideas to disappear into the depths of a giant text document.
- Provide future historians with evidence that all of this somehow made sense at the time.
