How? The magic of the being itself prevents folks from leaving, or

Thanks Thomas, your comments make me think I will have to go back and
re-read the info on the SPELLJAMMER.
I don't remember the info about never being able to leave.
What I am trying to do is get across the idea that the whole universe had
shifted at a real fundemental
level. Taking the SPELLJAMMER and making it something that is still
powerful, ancient and mysterious
but at the same time something that is being coming more commonplace. This
concept to me represented
that shift.

What I was also planning on doing is attempting to create some *new* legends
in this universe
of mine. Either something the gods might bring back or create to combat this
new era of technology.
Your comments really helped Thomas, Thanks. I am still trying to design this
universe and any comments
will help.
