I'd just have them say that the Feywild and Ethereal are equivalent, as are the Shadowfell and the Plane of Shadow (The other new planes don't seem like they need to be adapted into the setting).My reasoning for this is that both the Feywild and Shadowfell appear to be transitive planes, but they each seem have traits similar to those of the (for lack of a better term) rotary planes. IIRC the Feywild seems to combine aspects of Thelanis, Lammania, & Irian, while the Shadowfell combines Mabar & Dolurrh.Because of that I don't think it wouldn't be effective to map either the Feywild or Shadowfell to one of the rotary planes and just calling it a day. Instead, I think it would be the least intrusive for one to say that the Ethereal plane (i.e. Feywild) and the Plane of Shadow (i.e.) are actually always coterminous with the respective rotary planes planes I mentioned above.Of course, all of this is hinging on the idea that there are in fact mechanical links to the transitive planes like there were in the 3e (e.g the spells Ethereal Jaunt and Shadow Walk). If there aren't any things like that I hope that they don't change the planes at all (and that we can get a planes of Eberron splat book)</blockquote>
