Endean

The term "Endean" is most commonly associated with the fictional world created by Michael Ende, specifically the fantasy novel The Neverending Story and its related media.

Within the context of The Neverending Story, "Endean" refers to:

• Fantastica: The magical realm where imagination and stories originate. Fantastica is sometimes also referred to as "Endor" and is directly tied to the well-being of the human world. When humans lose their ability to imagine, Fantastica suffers.
• Related Concepts: Associated terms include the Childlike Empress (the ruler of Fantastica), the Great Nothing (a destructive force that consumes Fantastica), and the concept of human imagination as the lifeblood of Fantastica.
