The Su'ndari people truly have no idea about the full size of the planetoid upon which they live and even the most ill educated Su'ndari citizen is aware that much of their home world remains unknown to them. The better educated amongst the people are aware of the existence of the Anjanalan Kingdom but most have no idea that it even exists because only two Su'ndi have ever managed to sail to the mysterious land. The Kassoan Peninsula, where the MUX takes place, is also a place of mystery and unknown perils. It has been known to the Su'ndi people for less than a generation and many wonderous stories of exploration and discovery are still slowly filtering back home along with new and exciting spices, timbers and luxury goods.
The empire does not truly understand the setup of their local universe but they are keenly aware of the impact of the heavens upon their daily lives. The study of the heavens is a holy science elevated to religion yet most remain ignorant of the precise nature of the gas giant that provides a daily reminder of their Gods and the other planetoids which orbit out of normal sight.

It was 5 years before the people were able to return and tell of their discovery and another 5 before the Kassoan colony, as it exists now, was formed. These days the merchant family running the colony offer heavily discounted passage to any who are eager or desperate enough to make the dangerous voyage to the steamy jungles that await them.
