[QUOTE="GreenTengu, post: 6856194, member: 6777454"] It kind of feels as though perhaps you have too many pieces going on here to the point where some things have become more than redundant. For instance the Interstitial planes all seem alike... and, perhaps more troublingly, the idea that each of them connects all the mortal planes but since you included the elemental planes in that, it makes me wonder why there needs to be multiple ways of connecting all of them... Also, I have a bit of trouble conceptualizing how exactly you could have a plane that specifically connects all the other planes. Also, it makes me wonder about how it might work if you have multiple inhabitable worlds in a single universe, which it kind of seems like it should be a possibility. Do these connections only appear on a single world and if you live on a different world in the same universe you can't reach anywhere? Maybe it is arguably more sci-fi, but I am thinking... even in a fantasy setting, isn't it possible on one world you can look up at the moon and see signs that people are living up there even though you can only see what is happening on a macroscale... or have legends that the blue "wandering star" in the sky apparently has people on it, and either way-- you can only get there by using magical doorways... Nevermind just how big a single world can be. So if you consider that the interstitial plane might be as necessary if not more necessary for connecting various parts of the same universe (in my example, the same system of the same star), how does that fit into this picture?
