Meet my silly squad of Wither Shard and Star chasers.
Some big dimension hopping lore / science I’ve made…
The “In-Between” is a reference to the space between dimensions when hopping. In the “In-Between”, you find dead universes or remains of destroyed ones. No stars exist here and cannot be reached by Astrals [at least - not easily] and is basically a hallway to other dimensions.
Getting stuck out in the middle of the “In-Between” is typically a death wish, but not for “Drifters” like Solstice. [D.Sun] Drifters are people who roam the “In-Between” or even inhabit it. Because the plane is so vast, you will likely never find another Drifter here if you don’t have another one already with you.
The best to map markers in the “In-Between” are dimensions, but those do often move. Not drastically, but subtly like an ever-changing maze depending on the events of said universe.
Ruin and Nexus were temporary inhabiters of the In-Between.
Solstice is a permanent Inhabiter.
Eclipse is well educated on it since his time with the Star, and is able to traverse it, but dares not to try for its dangers. Though - it’s an interesting study.
The home that Solstice brings Nexus and Ruin to is a ruin inside the In-Between. It is not stable enough to be a dimension, and is further decaying by the decade.
If you’ve known my content for a while, you may recall “Take Me Back To Eden” Eclipse vs Solstice. They are in the In-Between in that animation, and the white “snake” above is what a dimension looks like.
