*slowly slides the skelebros here*
I may have gone a little overboard with the details, I'm sorry I'm so inconsistent with Papyrus's design...
ALRIGHT BYE NOW *skidaddles away*

Locations
just generally the locals that Frisk can visit in the plot, do they actually visit said locals?... depends on if I actually manage to write a story at some point...
anyways all of it under the cut, enjoy!
Ruins/Home- Fallen Myth/Infernal City: Rebuilt and well-maintained. Toys are everywhere and the place is kid proofed; no spikes, no dangerous falls, just generally safe puzzles that still try to go with monster traditions. Things to (safely) climb are built everywhere. So monsters of all young ages have a lot of fun here. There is a ball pit in the beginning for anyone to play in. There is also a walkway that goes to a town. It was originally that balcony in the game that shows the ruined city, but that was deconstructed long ago, Toriel didn’t like seeing the dilapidated buildings on her way to the shop so she hired people from outside the ruins to help safely destroy the large ruin city and is in the process of rebuilding it when Frisk arrives. Toriel also constructed a soft landing for any humans that fall in. One of the humans that came underground used their lasso to climb down, and they left it behind for others to use. Even though it has the least population, it sometimes gains more whenever humans fall into the underground and word gets out that a human is staying there. Frisk gets to walk through the infernal city, but it's not required to do so to get to Toriels house compared to New Hopes castle.
Falldin: All trees have leaves that fall forever in every leaf color. The monsters celebrate Halloween except it's named Hallows Eve where the kids go around dressed up as anything they want to be and asking every house for candy. If the kids get denied candy the house owner gets puzzles and/or pranks depending on the kids' wishes. Our tradition of trick or treat. Also, it always looks like that perfect spooky balance of light and darkness, there's also always a nice chill breeze once and a while. Instead of a blizzard being between Falldin and Waterfall it's a tornado of leaves around Papyrus’s battlefield.
Waterfall/Swamp of Tears: A lake where the bulk of everything is under the water. With only a few platforms and tiny towns above the water, even then the lands are almost swamp-like so people have to build a lot of walkways and buildings need maintenance from time to time, although buildings usually are made with a light material on as solid ground as they can get. There is a glass hallway system underwater connected to the above-water sections. Hence, people who can't swim/navigate water easily have an easier time getting through. There are also moonpool-type rooms for people who can swim. The hallway leads to a staircase of course. There is also a platform higher than every other platform where Papyrus, Sans, and Gaster gather for family time. Near the platform is a different platform adorned with boxes and barrels filled to the brim with things, as well as Sans' station where he sells things illegally. Metal spears and dents are decorating the walls where Undyne has failed to catch Sans’s illegal schemes. Gold is mainly found in Waterfall, although the people who dig it up are mainly those who can see and breathe underwater, also they’re officially appointed to the job by Gaster. Once in a while, you can see Sans taking a swim to try his hand at finding some, illegally of course. There are also a few towns where people live in Waterfall. Temmies are usually spotted here. Although they are considered to be mythic cryptids of sorts, very rare sightings and even rarer evidence of their existence…
Hot Springs/Town of Shooting Stars: A town full of hot springs in between Waterfall and Hotland, Undyne, Mettaton, and Napstabot mainly stayed here at one point for one reason or another. They all check in on friends and/or family that stay here. The hot springs are naturally separated pools of hot water with a town built around it, mainly filled with water-based monsters but some people from the city visit here on occasion to relax, this place essentially has tourists on occasion. Frisk doesn’t need to stop here but he eventually does.
Hotland-Town of Inferno: Walkways made of basalt and obsidian lead to the lab, the center point of Hotland. There are walkways around some puzzles that lead to a little town that also goes down near the lava, where the townsfolk farm magical plants that feed off of the lava's heat and are also the town's main food source. Near the lab are of course the elevators up to the other layers of hotland. When you think of Shadowtale Hotland, think about the Nether from Minecraft, layers of islands and a lot of places to go, and lava waterfalls from the other layers/ceilings. The Core is at the topmost layer of the Hotland close to Waterfall. It also has a coolant system around it. In Hotland you can find the occasional vein of diamonds and other ores that monsters found but didn't dig out due to the fact they are unusable with their current currency of gold coins and bars. Hotland is also home to Mettaton and Napstabot Resort. There is also a prison that works towards redeeming monsters. Those who aren’t redeemable still get a chance, it's just in a more high-security part of the prison. Also, there are a few of Spamtons corporations here, just not as many around.
Human Slums-Town of Solaria: A town of humans in between Hotland and New Home. The human slums are a little town hidden away, it's in a big warm cavern close to the surface and has the perfect farmland thanks to Sans and Gaster. A place for Humans to live peacefully. Sans, Riverperson, and Asriel visit frequently, albeit in secret because a few monsters would reject the fact that they visit humans. Calling this place a dump would be a compliment. Humans aren’t allowed out of here without Rosgores permission. Some sneak out illegally sometimes with the help of Prince Asriel before he became King. When Asriel becomes King he reverses the policy on humans and helps make the town better he also renames it to be Town of Solaria. Gaster visits here sometimes as well, usually as a volunteer for experiments, he’s well-trusted by most humans. The humans are very glad to have less strict measures and celebrate Asriel’s rule.
New home-New Hope: A city near the castle, A city full of color, A city full of monsters living their lives; working, dancing, singing, playing, etc. Royal guards are seen walking around doing patrol to keep peace. New Home is the most guarded place in the underground. But it's also the most popular place in the underground. Mettaton and Napstaton have a few small hotels around the city. The castle is in the center of the city. New Home is also home to a few big corporations, under Spamtons name, that protect the current revolution as monsters are getting impatient with Asriel. Asriel renames New Home to New Hope and the Underground all together is known as the Kingdom of Dreams.

New lore things
Monsters are a worldwide race much like humans.
Gold is the main currency of the underground. Mainly found as coins but can also be used in other forms (plates, ingots, bars, etc.)
Monsters made of light need to sleep in an actual bed, unlike other monsters who are not made of/produce light
Bob the Temmie guides Frisk through the underground.
While Frisk is Underground humans on the surface are already fighting for monsters' rights and trying to free the monsters.
Asriel eventually cleans up the H Slums but he’s still trying to come up with a new name
Everywhere in the underground, there is merch for MTT and NSB. And eventually, in most places, you’ll see advertisements for Spamtons corporation.
Monsters are nocturnal beings.
While Humans live on in the form of light spirits able to commune with their living relatives, when monsters die, they can only appear as shadowy memories, mostly their happiest memories. There is the rarity of seeing the most traumatic memory when they have just passed on.
Most monster parents teach their kids not to have digital devices out when people are resting, and family bonding moments are spent inside a dark room where they feel safe and vulnerable with each other.
Monsters having eyes meant for darkness, means that they cannot see as many colors as humans can, especially when they're a newborn. Babies' darkrooms have to have soft walls and toys so babies don't bonk their heads
The whole monster race would know echolocation, it's both an instinct and a genuinely taught behavior
human-monster hybrid babies especially need to learn the habit, unlike monster babies. There are of course special cases where monster babies have a hard time with their instincts and need to be taught
Whenever a couple is dating the scenes are almost always somewhere dark with very dim light (such as campfires or candles)
When monsters are first born they do occasionally go to sleep within the darkness (Sans, of course, kept this habit throughout his whole life) Not a lot of monsters keep the habit of sleeping but some do keep it.
Monster babies are often loud as fuck, especially when their parents aren't vocally there with them. You cannot stay silent near a monster baby or they will cry, parents often need to reassure them that they are not alone and that nothing can hurt them in the darkness, and make them feel safe.
Monster Kidd is the same type of name that Jane Doe or John Doe is.
Rosgore is pulling the strings of the revolution so he can get out, conveniently at the same time Frisk is going through the underground. Frisk will have a choice to make when they meet him... Kill him and redeem the revolters, or spare him and be killed.
As Frisk goes through the underground they see more and more conflict between MTT+NSB and Spamton

General info
Shadowtale is a work-in-progress AU where monsters gain energy from the dark and humans gain energy by the light.
The souls here are named resolve, courage, fairness, goodwill, tolerance, honesty and persistence.
Chara, Asriel and Gaster are alive. Chara, Asriel and Frisk are all adults.
When a human gets hit by a monster’s magic attacks, on the chest or soul, they begin to get a form of corruption that only damages them once fully corrupted. It’s the same for monsters. Corruption greatly limits a users magic.
Shadow travel is a way to travel from place to place. one exception is that shadow traveling, unlike teleportation, transforms the magical form and soul of the monster using it, into shadows. Shadow travel also causes the user’s soul to be ungrabbable by any form of magic; however the user can still be harmed.
There are two wars, the first one monsters won. The second one monsters lost.
Magic that produces light takes energy and monsters that produce light are somewhat weaker than those who don’t.
Asriel is eventually King of the underground as Rosgore is eventually forcibly retired and soon lives in the prisons within Hotland.
Toriel adopted two orphaned kids from a Snowdin orphanage; she now lives in the ruins with Monster Kid, Rosie and Asel. With Toriel’s help the Ruins have become well maintained enough to warrant for a new name.
Humans usually can control light, unless their souls are weak or corrupted. Their magic can form light into certain animals/weapons or objects depending on the person or their lineage.
All locations in the underground function in the bare minimum amount of light, unless one lived in the H Slums which is a human city. Sans gave the humans a secret gift that Rosgore doesn’t know anything about. He destroyed a portion of the cavern’s ceiling to give the humans a way to get vitamin d. He also gave them things from Waterfalls human garbage dump.
Monsters in Shadowtale don’t dust when they die, they become one with the shadows. Humans become one with the light.
A monster soul/human soul can control/take energy from light or darkness but it slowly dies in the process unless completely mastered, very few can master it. A monster or a human fusing their souls together is possible however, they would have to work in tandem to keep their energies equivalent to what their souls need. Corruption on a soul comes in two forms: trauma, which is permanent, and the second one is being hit on the soul or chest with a monster’s magic attack. Once fully corrupted the soul begins to take damage (unless it’s trauma ofc). Corruption via trauma makes a soul useless against the barrier.
Light and darkness can be made into weapons, animals, or attacks. (Depends on the monster/human)
Riverperson is a human in magic disguise, as to try and not be treated horribly by others and to have their job as a ferry.
Humans in the underground have slowed in aging due to the barrier’s magic, therefore the aging effects of the sun’s light no longer work.

Did a little drawing of Frisk and Chara
They're both very mischievous adults who love adventuring and having fun! When they noth meet in the underground they adventure around pranking people and joking around! They become bffs!
