Ysgard's topmost layer is earth berms, separated by empty but windy space. Light comes from fires burning on the bottom of the berms.
This is nice, but it raises some questions.
1. Is there enough air between the berms to breathe?
2. Where are the fjords?
3. How much light is generated by a fire on the bottom (edge?) of a berm?
Does anyone have any additional information, cool home-brewed stuff, or a source of groovy Ysgard material?
