• Introduction

• Index

This is a general encyclopedia to the universe of Shards. It'll probably never be complete, and I'll continue to add to it sporatically. Some articles may be blank, which merely means I haven't gotten to writing them. While I will try not to give away any information that would spoil things in future comics, there may be be spoilers if you haven't read all the comics up to date. And remember to bring a pillow. It's the most useful tool in the galaxy.
