Versology is a magical or scientific discipline about studying the multiverse and its workings, other worlds, and different planes of existence. Usually little known and marginal on most worlds, this discipline is, unsurprisingly, very important in Felarya and extensively studied. Sagolians are said to have been master at it, gathering an encyclopedic knowledge on the subject.
Dimensional Portals
In the universe in general, dimensional magic is seen as a rare and strange type of magic, that few beings can use due to its difficulty. After all, we are speaking of forces capable of twisting and distorting the fabric of reality. In Felarya however, this type of magic is much more common and, admitedly, easier to use due to the world being at such a crossroads between dimensions and thus, more malleable. An entire class of spellcasters specialize in dimensional magic. While it's still a hard and dangerous discipline, portal-crafting is an easy task for them. A portal is like a two-way door from one place to another, that cross the boundaries of time and distances. Using a portal is the most common way to enter or exit Felarya and is generally safe, although the maker of the portal could place certain restrictions on it. For example, "If King Quetzoal III ever crosses this gate, send him to Hell, but send all others to their normal destination," is a viable command a portal maker could place on their portal ! However, if the portal maker were to die then the portal would close, aside from a handful of cases where the maker was powerful enough to keep their portals open even after their death. One peculiar portal is the great dimensional gate near Ur-Sagol. This portal is so perfect that it's a real enigma in and of itself.
