Information
Plane The Edge

The Chaos Wall is the hard border between the Edge and the Blind Eternities of the Multiverse. As experienced from the Edge, it is a chaotic, scrambled barrier of howling, recombinant particles, impossible to observe beyond.[1]

Description

For the Edge's denizens, the Chaos Wall is where matter, space, and time appear to originate.[1] It is unknown how the Chaos Wall manifests on the Multiverse side. The Edge is unaware of the Multiverse within the Chaos Wall, presuming a mere pocket universe lies within. However, inhabitants of the Multiverse have accessed the Edge, including the Eldrazi, while the Fomori may even have originated there. It is possible for planeswalkers to enter the Edge by planeswalking, but not for them to leave it.

Faster-than-light travel and weftwalking are often done by temporarily piercing and traversing the Chaos Wall.[1] This, in itself, suggests that there must be some form of "space" or other layers of creation behind that otherwise hard reality barrier.

In conjunction with hard science, Pinnacle understanding of the Chaos Wall and any potential space behind it is informed by Drix myth: that lamellae beyond the Chaos Wall are typically treated as hellish places, homes of ancient beasts and devils that once raged across the Edge in millennia past.[1]

Ejecta

There is some further evidence of contents within and behind the borders of the Chaos Wall: chaotic ejecta is the most common. These extraversal ejecta - expulsions of energy, aether, and particulates - are most commonly residual Eldrazi contamination from the Fomori-Eldrazi war.[1] Pinnacle has captured recordings of a handful of these colossal energy bursts and meaningfully distinct readings of aetheric waste and other strange, fast-decaying particles.

One of these ejecta was the planeswalker Tezzeret.[1]
