The Picture of

It occurs to me to wonder about age. If it is true that time does not pass in our worlds whilst we are here, what would happen if we stayed here for long periods? Time still passes for us, if only here. Would our bodies feel the effects? Either we age, in which case we could appear to age years in a single moment when we return to our worlds, or we do not age, and our experiences may reflect those of one Mr. Dorian Gray. Though I suppose others may not be familiar with that piece of literature. Suffice to say that the Astral Plane may be a fountain of youth - possibly with dire consequences.

Any thoughts on this matter?

Although I do wonder about that. But time can't be completely stagnant here. This isn't the Void, after all.
