Six elemental planes surround the eye, each with its own Elemental Lord. Beyond this, two more realms complete the cosmology of this world: Yore, the realm of ideas and spontaneous Creation, and The After, the realm of Death, Destruction, and reincarnation. To some scholars, the multiverse takes much the shape of an hourglass, with existence flowing in from Yore and out from The After, with the planes forming a ring around the narrow center that is The Eye. There is almost no way to verify such a claim, of course.
