“All right, basic plex mechanics; the astral planes are full of matter.
They’re full of matter because they exist in compressed space. Now, the
lower the dimension, the more compressed it is, which is why traveling
across a single planet is exponentially faster than flying between stars.
Why is it faster, you ask? Why is more compression better? Well, you see,
it all has to do with gravity. Gravity holds us in place. It attaches
things together. People to planets, planets to suns, suns together, moving
around a galaxy. It’s all about attraction. But thanks to a little human
ingenuity, we have ways of subverting that gravity. But we can’t subvert
it if it’s not there, or there’s not enough, which is why
faster-than-light travel within empty space is all but impossible. These
compressed astral planes, however, change all that.
“Once an astral collimator transmits a vessel into a tunnel inside astral
space, we use our gravity manipulators to counteract the effects of the
gravity from the proverbial astral walls and slide right through. The
better we are able to manipulate the gravity, the faster we go. But it’s
not instant. It’s never instant. Enter, astral snappers. Though still not
instant, they get you about as close as you’re ever gonna get. They form a
wedge of astral space, thereby increasing their gravitational pull which
we then reverse from one direction and harness from the other to use to
our advantage. In other words, the snappers temporarily close the tunnel
behind us and
in front of us, giving us more to work with. What does this mean, you ask?
It means we go faster; much
faster. Again, not instant, but pretty damn close. Instead of hours, we
could potentially reach another planet in a matter of minutes.
“This, my friends, is what solidifies our status as the most powerful
group of people in the galaxy.”
