At Dundracon, Greg used an Arthurian Romance-type Heroquest as being the Sorceror's perception of the Theistic plane. Such quests are exceptionally perilous and alien *because* the plane is hostile to the knight or wizard questing.
A Zzaburi might think of such heroquests as being useful metaphors for the naive, but really relish the austerity of the Sorcerous plane for proper access to power. Think command-line versus GUI.
