If by some krazy kooky event, the magical energy was disrupted or magic ceased to exist on the plane, they'd just drop back in at some random point between the starting point and the destination.  Although technically, according to my description, they probably "should" instantly evaportate, but I'm not going to do that to my players ... or more importantly, my villians. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />The teleporting-to-avoid-aging angle is a nice twist.  Assuming the wizard can cast 4 teleports, that would be 12 hours experienced for every four days elapsed or one year for every eight that go by.  I'd use the vacation on the moon idea, it would tie in nicely with the alignment concept, but I already wrote in all the stuff about travel beyond the world's atmosphere.  In hindsight, I'd have been a lot better off using a Spelljammer-esque ether or phlogitson mega-atmosphere, but that horse already left the barn.  Pity.  It's a cool idea.</blockquote>
