Planes of Existence

There are innumerable planes of existence. Trying to understand the complexities of how the universe melds together is beyond the comprehension of most mortals. However, the best understanding is this: Nasria (the material plane) is tethered to many other planes of existence, which allowed magic to be funneled into Nasria in order to create the mortal races. Beyond that, most have no idea how it works. What is known is that there are certain places in Nasria where these tethering points exist in the form of portals to other planes of existence. One example is the Tempest Archipelago which contains sporadic connections to the Elemental Planes that open up in varying intervals.
