Elemental Realms

## Reality Separated

The Elemental Realms are many separate layers of reality that come together as part of the K2 cosmology to comprise the Material Realm. Each Elemental Realm is connected to the Material Realm, and is adjacently connected to those Elemental Realms nearby. While other Realms were created through divine effort, or created as a consequence of cosmic events, the Elemental Realms are a necessity for the Material Realm (and many others) to exist, and are considered the oldest and most ancient of Realms, created first by the gods to allow for the creation of the Material Realm. Each Elemental Realm is the manifestation of a central aspect of reality, and as such are more intense and vivid than the manifestations of those same elements in the Material Realm.

### Cosmography:

The Elemental Realms are placed in K2's cosmography as surrounding the Material Realm, with other adjacent Realms like Heaven or Hell either connected to one or more of the Elemental Realms, connected solely to the Material Realm, or a mix of both. The Elemental Realms are connected to each other, to the Material Realm, and to the other Realms via the Cosmic Corridors in The Unbeheld, which acts as the separating space between the Realms.

### Cosmogony:

There are a great number of Elemental Realms in existence, each corresponding to a particular element or combination of elements, with the Material Realm being the ultimate conglomeration of all elements. The five (5) primary Elemental Realms are the main elements found in the Material Realm (fire, earth, air, and water), with the secondary Elemental Realms being alternate manifestations of a singular element (ice, blood, metal, light, etc.). Tertiary Elemental Realms are those that act as a combination of two (2) or more elements.
