The S.S. Soaring Sky is a planetary body within the Manaverse. Aside from being the homeland to the Sorations, the S.S. Soaring Sky also functions as the base of operations, and mass-transportation device. The planet is split up into 7 total areas, with 6 quadrants inside, and the shell of the planet itself, which is used for the poorest inhabitants. The inhabitants of the S.S. Soaring Sky are unique compared to other planets, due to the fact that they are the only known group to not worship a major deity.

Geography
The S.S. Soaring Sky appears to be a barren wasteland when viewed from a distance, although when approached it is possible to see entrances leading into different sections of the planet. It is possible to see that the planet at one point was covered in water, as the wasteland is made almost entirely of dark gray sand, and black rock. The most notable feature of the planet are two large craters formed near the front, and a mountain made entirely of the black rock just below the craters.
Sectors
The planet is split up into 8 total sectors, each of them serving different purposes. It is split up into three residential sectors, one industrial sector, two economic sectors, a military sector, and one institutional sector. This does not cover the crust, which many consider to be the unspoken "ninth" sector of the ship, where the homeless and poor live out their lives.
Avarius
Avarius is a residential area, and is considered the largest sector of the S.S. Soaring Sky. This is the average living space for the Soration citizens, filled with numerous living units. Each living unit within this area is shaped like a large dome, each one made of a transparent metal alloy. Each dome has 3 rooms, consisting of a washroom, a bedroom, and a living space mixed with the kitchen. Each dome sits high on a white metal bridge, for a total of 500 domes within the area. Far below the domes is a fresh water river, flowing through one end of the sector into the other. On either side of the river are metallic sidewalks, and a grassy area. The only two buildings other than the living units are a small pub called The Bird Cage, and a small buldings where people can go to pay their taxes at any time. The residents of Avarius are mainly Avian citizens, although there are some human residents. The human residents run the only two services within the section.
Welzous
Welzous is the smallest residential area within the ship, although it contains some of the higher-up people within the society. The area contains only 100 living units, compared to the 500 of Avarius. The living units in Welzous are taller than the Avarius domes, containing two floors rather than just the one. Each floor consists of 4 rooms, with 2 bedrooms, a washroom, a kitchen, an entertainment room, a living space, storage, and a power room. The domes in Welzous are on brass-coloured bridges, forming in a grid, with one house per corner. Other than the living units, there is also a small market area in the center of the sector. Although the main product sold here is produce, Welzous is infamous among the ship for its "Miracle Fruit", scientifically created by locals to cure some common illnesses. The people of Welzous are a 50/50 mixture of Humans and Avians.
Isandoh
Isandoh is the poorest of the residential areas, containing those who are barely able to make it by. Isandoh living units only contain the basic necessities for life, all within two shared rooms. The rooms which these living units contain are a small washroom, and a general living area (Containing a Bed, Stove, A couple of chairs, a light source, and a small desk). The units in Isandoh are shaped nothing like the dome units in Avarius and Welzous, rather they are shaped like tall rectangles. A set of stairs is on the out-side of each living unit, in order to allow people to get to their sections. All of these units are side by side, leaving small alley-ways in between them where many people have set up small shops, in order to help pay their taxes. Isandoh is the only residential area where the houses are not built suspended above the ground.
Minnetic
Minnetic is the only industrial area within the S.S. Soaring Sky, and it is also the largest nonresidential area within the planet. Many of the Soration people find their daily work happening here, as several factories are lined up for producing the numerous things required to both run the ship, and keep its citizens alive. There are approximately 50 factories within the Minnetic industrial area, each one producing a different thing. Each factory is suspended above the ground on large metallic platforms, each one having beams sticking out into the cave walls. Every factory that produces smoke of any kind has tubes leading up into the planet, which eventually come out at the processing plant, where it is turned into new, renewable energy. In the center of the room is a main platform, where everyone has to pass through in order to get to their area. Down below all of the suspended platforms is a large elevator, which leads down into what was once the core of the planet.
Still considered to be part of the Minnetic area, this is where the Minnetic Mine is located, where lava crystals made from crystallizing the planets core are mined on a daily basis. These crystals are then sent through another (smaller) elevator, used for sending the crystals directly to a processing plant. Due to the extreme temperatures involved in working with the mines, the Spektran people have been recruited to work on so.
Goria
Goria is one of two economic areas within the S.S. Soaring Sky. It is a large area split up into 5 floors. On each floor there are 30 units, each one for the purpose of selling or buying food, items, and miscellaneous objects. Each floor is a large balcony which circles around the room, with a shop set up at each point. There are bridges set up at 4 key points at every balcony, which leads into a large platform made of a transparent metal alloy. On each of the platforms are several tables and chairs, where many people come to for lunch. Goria is called by many the "Grand Shopping Mall" of the S.S. Soaring Sky, containing just about anything one would be able to imagine.
Marcius
Marcius is one of two economic areas within the S.S. Soaring Sky. Marcius is the smallest sector out of them all, containing a total of 10 units, all of them for the purpose of Government Services. Every building in Marcius is a large half-dome sticking out of the wall, made of the same transparent metal alloy as the domes in Avarius. The 3 most notable buildings are the Tax Return, the Command Center, and the jail. People have nicknamed it the "Bird Cage", simply because of the shape of the cells, and the fact that there has never been anyone other than an Avian citizen arrested and placed inside. Other buildings within the area include real-estate, and insurance services.
