I drew a picture of the structure of the earth according to ancient arabian cosmology.
explanation
On the top is Earth, which is flat. there are actually 7 Earths, but I was too lazy to draw the rest
The Earth by its self is unstable. Without support, it would fall out of the sky. That is why god created an angel to hold the Earth up.
The angel, not being able to fly for some reason, needed footing to stand on. So god created a giant rock of ruby for the angel to plant their feet and hold up the earth.
Much like the earth though, the ruby could also fall. God being all knowing and all wise understood this and created a bull of galactic proportions. The bull’s name was Kuyutha and it is said to have four thousand eyes, noses, ears, mouths and feet. To get a grasp of its size, know that between each foot is the diameter of the earth.
Yet this structure can still fall.
Thankfully, god stepped in and created Bahamut, the cosmic fish. And around and underneath Bahamut, water.
This is what we know of the earths structure. Anything below Bahamut and its water is the dark abyss of the unknown. Some say the 7 hells can be found in the darkness, but no one truly knows for sure.
We definitely know about the fish though. The fish is real as fuck and I’m so glad I can count on it to hold us up. Thank you Bahamut the big fish.
Blackwater?
