Wuthering Waves — World & SettingWuthering Waves — Dunia & Latar
- Solaris-3 — the inhabited world; the Lament physically severed it from the rest of the universe, destroying early spaceflight and birthing the Waveworn Phenomena (海蚀现象, *Hǎishí Xiànxiàng*), anomalies from destabilized natural laws.
- The Lament (悲鸣) — a recurring catastrophic wave of frequencies; its exact cause is unknown (uncertainty flagged: origin debated in-lore).
- Waveworn Phenomena — include the Etheric Sea (以太之海, condensed Remnant Energy), Tacet Fields (where Tacet Discords are born), Retroact Rain (falling Remnant droplets), blizzards, and gravity loss.
- The Etheric Sea / Remnant Energy — a pure, stable form of frequency energy that can record information transcending time and space; a magnet for Tacet Discords.
- Tacetite (残响石, *Cánxiǎng Shí*) — rare substance that permanently contains Remnant Energy.
- Major regions — Huanglong (黄龙, Asian-inspired, home of Jinzhou/金州) and Rinascita (利纳希塔, European-industrial, formerly the "Realm of a Thousand Islands"); older era names exist (uncertainty flagged: exact count of past Laments varies by source, ~multiple across history).
