________________________________________

 Certainly , there much to explore on Mystara , but I cannot know too
much cause is my brother the Mystara's DM here ... hehehe . My area of
concern is Forgotten Realms , Birthright and my 2 own worlds ( and I'm
trying to incorporate SJ even without have the basic book) . I was
thinking about the Crystal spheres and your size . For example :
Forgotten Realms "speak" about the Toril's solar system and the "distant
stars" . Can we think that the spheres contain various galaxies? So ,
too many planets ( maybe with life) exists along with Toril .
 If somebody knows where I can find a SJ basic book to download ( since is hard to find an old book )I thank.
