Kind of a Stargate feel to it then!Perhaps the Old World was a very high magic world, crisscrossed by these portals that were used for everything from foot traffic to shipments of goods and materials. The portal network is what held the Old World together!Then something happened... Some people say that the mage-kings finally crossed the line, and invoked the wrath of the gods. Others hear that the portals were somehow inverted so that they shoved away instead of bringing together. Still others swear that it was the Void itself...that the day it arrived and took up its place on the opposite side of the sky from the Light, the world was rocked by shaking and quaking, and finally was ripped asunder!For a long time the shards developed in isolation. No one knew how to cross the space between. They could only gaze upward and watch other pieces of the world twirl and tumble through the sky. But on the remains of the Old World were ruins of the Old Kingdom. And one day, an intact portal was found...--I like the notion that each destination can be something entirely different. Cannibal halflings on that shard. Elves riding mastodons on another. Maybe on shards near the Void, you get lots of undead. Maybe there's two shards so close together that you can fly between them on the backs of giant eagles...and the inhabitants of them are at war with each other.So many options for just one setting. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
