Beautiful day

Achundala, the Thunderworm: One of the weakest of the Worms, Achundala is sometimes called the God of thunder, earthquakes, and rumbling. It’s most common form has a short, fat, larvae-like appearance with jagged limbs and a simplified, human-like face. It has a tendency to “swim” across surfaces, creating a wake of destruction, generating static and booming noises as it does so. At times, particularly when it takes to the sky, it has a more moth-like appearance.

Wilder, Worm of the Woods: Wilder is considered the embodiment of the dense forest. He is one of the most elusive of the Worms, preferring a quiet existence in the various places he inhabits, but this does not mean he had no influence on his environment. It is said that Wilder likes to change the emotions and mental state of those who live in his forest, but beyond this little is known about him. Worshipers find comfort in Wilder’s presence, believing that with his influence they are never truly alone. His body most closely resembles a winding root.

Guiote (pronounced and sometimes spelled Geeyot with a hard “G”), Worm of a Thousand Blades. Guiote is perhaps one of the most feared of the Worms, to the point where worshipers of Guiote are often hunted down and executed, galactic governments fearing the summoning of the beast. Guiote has a very long, thin, dark figure, lined with thousands upon thousands of spikes and blades. It has no face, and its upper body contains twenty particularly large blades. Its unfriendly appearance is not the main source of why it is feared however, this lies in its behavior. Guiote is sometimes called the God of slaughter, killing, cutting, and genocide. There was an infamous historical event in which in the middle of war, an army summoned Guiote in the midst of battle, resulting in the death of both civilizations as the Worm went on a mindless rampage in which it sliced and dismembered everything that moved. This Worm is not considered a God of death or rotting or any of that sort, simply he is considered the God of the act of killing.

🌿 The Divided Children of Sylvia — Ganelle and Luthraghon

“The meeting of Sylvia’s daughters and sons would bring ruin to the balance.”

In the lore of Black Desert, the children of the goddess Sylvia — Ganelle, Vedir, and Luthraghon — were not born through natural means, but instead created from light, moonlight, and earth. Their very existence is a reflection of balance: nature and magic, light and darkness, form and void.

🏹 Who Are the Luthraghon?

The Luthraghon are the male elves of Sylvia — a caste separated long ago to protect Kamasylvia in a way unlike their sisters, the Ganelle.

They reside within Adùir (also called Archerlin), a hidden dimension nestled within the roots of the Kamasylve Tree. There, they stand as guardians of sacred power, defending the tree’s heart from the dark corruption of Hadum.

Among them is the Archer — not just a warrior, but a myth come to life. A lone sentinel who steps into the outer world only when Kamasylvia is in dire need.

🌸 The Ganelle — Daughters of Sunlight

Meanwhile, the Ganelle — Sylvia’s daughters — live on the surface of Kamasylvia, in the luminous forests and sacred lands surrounding the capital, Grána.

They are warriors of the forest, protectors of light and tradition. While they patrol and maintain order above, their forgotten brothers stand vigil far beneath.

🌓 Separation by Divine Will

The division between Ganelle and Luthraghon was not a cultural drift — it was intentional. Sylvia herself forbade their union, decreeing that the balance of the world depended on their separation.

The Ganelle walk beneath the sun. The Luthraghon guard the roots in shadow. Together, yet apart — by sacred law.

It’s said that their meeting could upset the natural order. And yet... with the arrival of the Archer in the surface world, the boundaries begin to blur. What happens when balance is tested?

In the lore of Black Desert, the children of the goddess Sylvia — Ganelle, Vedir, and Luthraghon — were created through magical means, born from light, moonlight, and earth.

Ganelle and Luthraghon are a split race, separated by Sylvia’s will to protect different aspects of the world.

The Archer is an elf of the Luthraghon caste, a descendant of the goddess Sylvia.

He is not an ordinary elf, but a guardian of Archerlin (also known as Adùir), an inner dimension of Kamasylvia that protects the roots of the Kamasylve Tree from the intrusion of Hadum’s darkness.

This makes his existence nearly mythical — he does not live in the surface world of Kamasylvia and only enters the outside world in rare and exceptional circumstances.

The Ganelle, the female elves, live in Kamasylvia’s surface realm — among the forests and nature — in places such as Grána, the radiant capital of their homeland.

The Luthraghon, the male elves, reside within Adùir — a hidden dimension nestled deep within the roots of the Kamasylve Tree.

They were separated by the will of Sylvia in order to maintain balance.

One in-game dialogue even states that “the meeting of Sylvia’s daughters and sons would bring ruin to the balance.”
