Now it was Rebecca's turn to be confused. That map was completely unfamiliar to her, and five continents? She knew of seven or eight, depending on how one counted. Then in a flash of insight, she got her answer... which raised more disturbing questions.

"My gods, this inn... no, this whole bloody forest is a confluence point! And a massive one, too!" Rebecca's eyes lit up. There was nothing she loved more than studying and explaining magical theory. "I don't know what they call them where you're from, but confluence points are places where various planes rub against each other, for lack of a better term. Interplanar travel is much easier in them; you can do it without even realizing it. And that must be what happened here." She closed her eyes, meditating for a few seconds. "I can feel them. Hundreds of different realities, all meeting [i]right here.[/i]" Rebecca shook her head, unnerved by the realization. "This explains so much. The strange distances, why we seem to come from different worlds; it all makes sense now."
