Joturnia-Mithgorne is the name of a system of its two constituent worlds, Joturnia and Mithgorne. They are part of the greater universe in which the World of Asdar exists and are specifically part of the galaxy known as the Starsea Galaxy. Joturnia is a terrestrial world smaller than Asdar and thus smaller than Earth. It is held in a kind of tidal lock with the greater world of Mithgorne which is thought to be composed of mostly water. The distance between the two worlds is fantastically close by real world standards. Joturnia is named after the Arch-Titan Joturn who is thought to have settled the first titans on it. Its axis of rotation points directly through the center of Mithgorne, so that Joturnia's southpole is always facing the great water world. For this reason, the lands at and near the south pole receive much more precipitation than the north pole which is a hot, desert wasteland similar to the Sahara.

There are twelve moons that orbit these worlds and thus are part of the Joturnia-Mithgorne System. The distance between these worlds is much close than the distance between the real Earth and her moon, Luna. Additionally, a thin atmosphere extends from Joturnia-Mithgorne to fill the space between these worlds. For this reason, fantastical skycraft can reach between them enabling transportation for the wealthy few who can afford such craft and for the Terubian Empire based on Joturnia.
