Sorry to say that, Teoh, but YOU'RE A FREAK! It's indeed all
very strange and weird but very imaginative, but my brain
has not enough windings to make up a picutre of what you're
talking about. I didn't read *everything* because of that.
Have you got some illustrations or so available? Or could
you draw some? Or would it be too difficult because of the
multi-dimensionality? Are the realms some kind of parallel
universes, because there are three of them? Why are the
Realms only "somewhat" 3-dimesional? I can't imagine a
3.5-dimensional space actually. 4 dimensions are already
difficult enough (what would 5 dimensional space be like
then?!). And, what is "force" if not kg*m/s^2? Besides, is
"Ferochromon" derived from "ferrum" (iron) and "chrome"?
Since the Realms consist of lattices that need to be pushed
forward or whatever be penetrated, can I imagine this
basically like a liquid? Like walking through water, just
without updrift but instead something similar to
airpressure that keeps you on the floor (or whatever
corresponds to "ground" in your world)?

Yours, totally confused,
Carsten
