Aetherspace is that which separates the multitudinous planes of existence. The
aetherways is that part of aetherspace that can be traveled by aether beings,
including the extradiminsional algontherine (also known as aetherships).
Occasionally, bubbles of reality form within aetherspace itself, each
containing separate realities unto themselves. The most well-known aether
bubble within aetherspace is the Facility, homeworld to the gnomes, whose
expertise in planar travel remains unparalleled. They harvest and sell
algontherine eggs, out of which grow the minds of aetherships, as well as
constructing modules for aetherships and the extremely valuable diamonut
artifacts.
The vastness of aetherspace should not be underestimated.
