| ==Notes==
| |
| {{note|name}} While the name of the "Plane of Mountains and Seas" was coined as such on this wiki, it entered canon when it was mentioned in [[Greg Weisman]]'s 2019 novel ''[[War of the Spark: Ravnica]]'' (page 172). It was subsequently back-translated to Chinese.
| |
| | |
| The Global Series's name in Mandarin Chinese is 幻境奇谭, which can be translated as "Tales of Huanjing." Huanjing itself is a generic term used to convey the idea of "fantasy land." It's unclear if Huanjing was originally intended to be the name of the plane.
