[QUOTE="pduggan_creative, post: 9576349, member: 7050645"] spitballing: Limbo means "border". It can be a border between the planes of Good and Evil for sure, but it can perhaps also be a border between the Neutral devotion to Individuality, Choice, and Freedom and as it moves deeper into it, chaos and madness and things that break the minds of all the creatures of the Great Wheel. When the far realm was pushed away from reality by the protogods who forged the Wheel, Limbo was the final doorway, the key and guardian of the gate set before it that they may not trespass upon our world. What would Limbo be like if the Far Realm was no more. Maybe less of a place of chaos and a place of freedom... (it might also be interesting to think about the Great Wheel touching upon a Far Realm Wheel one metacosmos over, and the plane of Limbo being where they touch. What would the other Far Realms be like if they're like the Planes of the Wheel? Ironic that Mechanus is a plane of interlocking wheels... I've always thought that all of the alignments getting planes neatly slotted into each other represented a "higher" order/Law over all the law/chaos dichotomy of the total Wheel.) [/QUOTE]
