No, we're mostly just thinking of this in terms of little pocket spaces like
the Rooms of Renunciation, the Cardboard Palace, and the altered city in "A
Few of My Favorite Things." They're the spatial equivalent of Bill Toge,
really--air bubbles in the strapping tape of reality that could be forcibly
squeezed out by St. Germain if necessary.

The term is used a little loosely, I think, but what I meant was the general
space where dead souls linger rather than passing beyond the veil. In other
words, the astral plane is where demons live.
