===Crossroads===
Spaces where two or more Realms overlap, including spaces where Earth overlaps with another Realm.<ref>For this particular project we’re doing writeups on various crossroads, places where realms meet.<br>[...]<br>The residents are primarily crossroads people, with animal features and qualities, most too close to humanity to be in the scope of the Seal. - [[Pate]]</ref> It is not uncommon for the [[Faerie Courts]] to have some involvement in these spaces.<ref name=":7">There were places that were often called crossroads.  The realms frequently overlapped Earth, or overlaid it, in layers visible to only those who could see the right frequency, with the right Sight, or from the right angles, coming from one place to another. [...] And, of course, realms themselves could overlap.  Abyss crossed Ruin in places.  Warren overlapped Faewild.  Digital Aether intersected Demiurgic domains.<br><br>The Fae liked to establish bases of operation at crossroads.  Even small ones.  The Spring courts liked to mark out a space of prominence.  The Summer courts might establish outposts, to guard the Fae realms, wild and otherwise, against incursion from the Abyss or Warrens.  And the Fall courts… markets. [...] Monstrous, gnarled, and odd Fae milled around, alongside those who were almost human, almost Other, but neither or both.  The Names and Heroes watched and managed, or they thought they did.  The Fae were the true managers. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/12/08 Excerpt] from [[Playing a Part 15.z]]</ref>

They can have populations unique to them due to how the realms cross. [[Chandling|Brownies]] originate from the crossroads of Goblin and Faerie,<ref>Brownies come from the crossroad Goblin and Fae, Summer and Fall.  That’s the reason for their cross-eyes, you see. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/06/29 Excerpt] from [[False Moves 12.3]]</ref> while wild [[Fauna Ephemera]] may inhabit the Faewilds at the border between Faerie and wild places on Earth. There can be near human populations that don't quite fall under the [[Seal of Solomon]].
