A cloud is a gaseous mass made up of water vapor. It is often believed that every cloud has a silver lining, meaning a good ending will occur, but not every cloud necessarily has one.

The Land of the Clouds is a land of steam and vapour where giants and dragons roam. The land is believed to be made up of cumulus clouds, and the overhanging cliff of the Door into Mountain.

Behind the scenes[]

If alexander messes up the Storm Brew spell, a tiny cloud shooting lightening appears over his head, "There's no silver lining in this cloud, Gwydion." This leads to a death scene.

A silver lining is a metaphor for optimism in the common English-language idiom"Every cloud has a silver lining."

The Silver Lining is the name of a fan game, however in the game the term has nothing to do with clouds, see also Silver Lining (unofficial).
