Sanus Belt

Ethereal energies glow across a thousand spectrums, bathing the equator of Numena in all manner of unformed enchantment.

Bound by the senseless infinities of change, Uode sought to add structure and meaning to the world through creation. Thus, the Sanus belt is impassable to all of those of sound mind and heart, mortal and divine alike. In effect encompassing the equatorial regions of the world, neither animals nor plants may cross its width (1-2 miles at its thinnest) for in the implication of an inability to have a sound mind is just as if ones mind was unsound.

Should one find themselves attempting to cross the Sanus belt, they will find that a combination of the winds, waters and shape of the world part and merge to prevent their travel, as reality itself is bound to the leash of the belt, whilst those of a stronger disposition then that find their very will and soul is bent on moving further away from the belt, pitting their heart against the rest of creation and ultimately all loosing.

The cleverness of Lirokof of course, found a workaround for travel, jumping between realms using planar gates allows ones relative position to move from one hemisphere to another without crossing the intermittent space, and thus the planar gates are the only known means of transversing Numena unencumbered.
