I'm hungry for your lore!
Crestar started out as a game world with nothing special about it, not a parallel Earth nor a shadow of Amber. I got asked.
A few years ago I came up with it being made by an Apprentice World Overlord. Something like that. Full story on my site.
There are two flat planes that make up the world. The inhabitants think its a sphere.
Transitioning from one flat plane to another is instantaneous. Dig down far enough, and a character will encounter scrith. A substance mentioned in the Man-Kzin Wars.
There are also portals/gates similar to the ones mentioned in Andre Norton's Witch World series. And Philip Jose Farmer's World of Tiers is part as well.
In other words, it's an artificial world in a pocket universe.

Shout Out to Ralf
I've made up words for my dungeons, like sword, etc. names, and if the players' characters have something like Read Languages, I tell them what it means. No concerted effort to make wholesale levels of languages.
However, back in my starting computer days... Sinclair ZX-81 and I have no idea where that particular cassette tape might be, I came up with some vague attempts to make an Elvish language using runes I found in a book. I don't remember the name of the book. This was about 1987.

Community Atlas - Forlorn archipelago - The Bleakness, 2 villages and 2 keeps
A preliminary map of the side-view. The vertical black lines are to show the location of the surface mapped locations.
I wanted to use one of the FS Castlewall_Blue_blu but I couldn't get it not pixelated. I'll include the fcw.
I'll probably need to increase the scale bar up to 10,000 instead of the 6,000 feet one shown.
