World jumping

The world jumping wasn’t unlimited, of course. I could create portals, but only to places I’d been before, and it might not always be safe to do so. I didn’t have to worry about appearing underground; I simply wouldn’t be able to move through the portal of it was blocked on the other side. I had to be able to move through a portal; the best ways to trap the fae would be underground and chained with heavy chains to a wall.

Underground would limit the possible ways their compatriots could rescue them. They’d have to find world variants that had lower elevations, or they’d have to dig a pit on the other side of one that didn’t. The chain would prevent a fae who did know of another universe from moving through a portal to a world it did know of with a lower elevation. It might be able to move through the portal, but it’d be unable to close the portal as long as something was solid blocking it. I was unsure that natural portals had the same limitations.
