The World and its Echoes

Battal
They are many planes of existence in the world, however the one that is most common is the plane of Battal. In Battal there are seven land provinces.
 * Harkenwold
 * Black Valley
 * Hjollnir
 * Athas
 * Asur Lyn
 * Tarrin
 * Valenar

Common civilized races from Battal  include Humans, Halflings, Dwarves, Elves. Many civilized races are known to visit here through Sigil, the capital city of Battal in Asur Lyn.

Other Planes
Battal  is not the only known plane in existence. Demonspawn are reguarly feared because of Battal's connection to the Elemental Chaos, and rumors of cults dedicated to opening the abyss of the Chaos have surfaced.

Whispers of an Astral Sea have also emerged, although these comments are easily dismissed. They speak of a physical realm high above the plane of Battal where the supposed gods rest. They say somewhere in old Black Valley was a following devoted towards performing a ritual which allowed simple men to ascend to the heavens. Some say it was a success, however with no eyewitnesses it proves that not many of their words are to be trusted.
