Chesed

Chesed is the bottom right sea area as seen in a simplified layout of the Astral Realm, and corresponds to the Cardinal of the Hand. It's most strongly influenced by the element of wind, which causes it to have more erratic and dangerous currents, and more frequent astral storms. It is probably the most dangerous sea area for non-deities. It is avoided by most, though as the strong currents make travel much faster, some still dare to use it for transportation. Only the strongest spirits are able to inhabit the Chesed sea for extended periods of time, so its occupants are mostly powerful Saints, and, rarely, Angels. Most of these are aligned with wind, darkness, ice, transformation or flesh magic. The islands of the Chesed sea tend to be much flatter than in other sea areas.
The Chesed sea has some degree of influence over mercy, kindness and charity, as these are attributes of the strong. It also possesses some synchronicity with passion and desire, since one needs strength to actualize these.
