     I think there is a way of counting it up to get six, but this counts the Sky World and Underworld, and doesn't count some of the others, so its a different scheme used to describe something slightly different. RQ used to have six as well, FWIW: Inner World, Outer World, Sky World, Underworld, Spirit World, God World. But this has since been gregged, presumably on the grounds that it leaves the sorcery world unaccounted for. Maybe most typical Heortlings believe in it though, since they wouldn't have much of a concept of a sorcery world. I think merman theology has six worlds surrounding this one in a cube shape, too. But they're weird...
