My comment for this page from Gaia: sic mundus creatus est:

You may wonder why they have so much time before impact. But remember that they’re in Vis where gravity works differently and their acceleration is probably significantly lower than on the surface.

I don’t get it.
Did they and foes Kilian still walk upside down?

v = √(2gh). The speed in freefall is determined by gravity and the height you fall. If gravity is much lower, then their falling speed is much lower as well, so that explains why the falls are survivable.

Terminal velocity impacted not only by the gravity but also the air density on Gaia (and the group’s drag, of course). 😊

But as demonstrated when Eldor was teleported far out into what counts as space around Gaia, it’s a world with entirely different physics and magic in abundance. That equation may not have applicability here without modification.

Besides, it’s a comic in a fantasy universe.

And that place in space around Gaia was probably way closer to our laws of physics than Vis.
