The Astral Realm
The Astral Realm is a realm in the universe, overlapping the Mortal Realm and Ideal Realm. It is the plane in which ethereal beings reside – the Realm of Spirits. More precisely, the realm is home to numerous creatures of legend on its surface layers, as well as profound forces of nature near its deeper layers.
The Interstice is a shallow layer of the Astral Realm where the realm intermingles with the Mortal Realm, where the dead who did not realize they died or left regretfully and various astral beings reside, allowing a number of astral creatures to take form in the world of man. As a result of this close connection to the material plane, it bears a similar scenery to corporeality, deriving its shape primarily from ethereal bodies of the Mortal Realm. Certain humans that have powerful spirits / magical inclinations (like witches and wizards) or those bearing the Brand of the Abyss have a footing in the Interstice and can interact with the beings residing there. The Skull Knight also exists between the two realms
As the Astral Realm expands downward, the landscape becomes markedly different from that of the Interstice, unimaginable in comparison. In this deep layer, there exist ethereal beings so profound and dissimilar from most others as to be considered divine. Such beings include angels, demons, and gods of polytheism.
