The same sky will begin the day tomorrow

Even if you aren’t here.

I wanted to paint what the demon world looks like, but I also just love drawing the besties :>

Arx Arcis is held together by spells from thousands of years ago, fueled by the residual energy of spells casted in the world. A once shapeless, empty plane of existence now has gravity and solid ground to walk on.

The constant flow of magic required to hold the world together creates light in the perpetual night sky, illuminating the surface below. The surface itself is the same as the sky, but with a solid glass-like feel and reflective sheen.

There’s no weather, but a slight breeze can be felt at higher elevation from the shift of new magic replacing old magic. There are no fossil fuels, as there are no fossils, so the air is always clean. Demon magic is more than enough to power even the largest cities.

Magic also dictates how buildings cluster into cities. Teleportation is a basic, low-effort spell for demons, so there is no need for vehicles and therefore highways. All cities are walkable in Arx Arcis, but as you get farther away from one of the capitol cities, like the one pictured here, the distance between clusters of buildings is unsettlingly empty.

It’s also very flat. Both in topography and in the shape of the world itself. Arx Arcis is more of an inter-dimensional plane of existence than an actual planet. There are solid glass-like walls bordering the perimeter of Arx Arcis. They’re heavily charmed to prevent tampering.
