If seepage between worlds causes physics to seep through like I've read, then every time we thought about or breathed we created a new plane we would have to be connected through the planar void in some way... So the physics of whatever plane was created would have to be seeping back thorugh I think?"

> research field 300
You realize that your project about Mana Field Theory only requires 135 more seconds of research, so you adjust your plans accordingly.
You expertly coach yourself into an emotional rage that you keep only the most fragile control over. In your state of imbalance, you reach beyond the mana streams and attempt to chart the invisible by the influences it imposes on what can be seen.

You are now prepared to cast the Stone Seat cantrip.
> gesture
You gesture, and a smooth eruption of rock rises from the ground with a low rumble, shifting and flowing fluidly before settling into a seat of stone. You walk over to it and sit down.
s> Timorias asks, "On that note, is it possible to travel to other planes say, via the Plane of electricity Or does one need to return to a starting point to go to a scond?"

s> s> s> You notice a sleek squirrel rub against you for a moment.
s> Timorias asks, "The reason I ask is because of the "blotch" or "star" the Moon Mages have been seeing, couldn't that just be a rift to another plane that hasn't widened yet?"
s> You notice as a sleek squirrel looks up at you with bright eyes.
s> Kethrai twitches an ear nervously.
s> Lupdels says, "That sounds bad."
s> Coethi says, "I mean... You can see it too. If you look up."
s> Siendra says to Elurora, "If there are weak points, it's possible."

s> Kystrk stares intently into his moonblade.
Kystrk's moonblade ripples like the disturbed surface of a pond.

s> Nebby says, "It's a shocking theory."
s> Uryutis grins at Siendra.
s> Lupdels tugs at the tip of his beard distractedly.
s> s> Elurora says, "If I were to take a guess, our plane is bleeding into theirs and theirs into ours, but I don't really know enough to do more than guess."

You see Lady of Frostbite Siendra Vauns'Arotru, Frost Fang of Siksraja, a Rakash.
Siendra has a swirl of glittered snowflakes painted on each cheek, a single snow violet tinged with purple that rests behind one of her ears, thick-lashed speckled seafoam-green eyes and a freckled nose. Her silver- streaked dark brown hair is long and wavy, and is worn in a deceptively careless-looking arrangement of upswept locks held in place by a dainty circlet of Siksrajan apple blossoms and kuwinite strewn with ruby shards. She has warm caramel-hued skin and a slender figure.
She appears to be mature.
Her right hip has a tattoo of a sea-blue jellyfish with delicate silver-tinged tentacles.
She is in good shape.
She is holding a red book titled "Don't Dream It, Be It: Realizing your Dreams" in her left hand.
She is wearing a dark silver crown engraved with swirling snowflakes, an apple blossom charm, an elegant scabbard embroidered with a hunting scene in silver, a ceremonial odaj of snowflake tulle layered over icy blue uzil, a grey leather armband adorned with onyx carvings, a pair of cerulean raw silk vikses bearing elaborately embroidered cuffs, a plated leather thigh quiver inset with gems representing the elements and a pair of hiro bear pelt nauda held by sinew ties.
