Every Biome in the Prismatic Realms has its own Environmental Expression - describing the natural forces at work and the Expression with which they Stain the local Prisma.
Lower Order Environments
Lower Order Environments are regions marked by a clear, dominant force of Flow, Iteration, or Decay where the majority of the local Prisma has a corresponding Lower Order Expression

Prismatic Wilds
Though most Higher-Order environments exist along the borders of Lower-Order Expressions as composites – such as a Taiga between a Forest and a Tundra – particularly strong overlaps over aeons of time create particularly mystical and dangerous environments with Higher-Order Prisma greater than the sum of its two parts.
In such a case, a Disruptive Jungle might evolve from a simple Blue/Yellow Overlap – the simple intersection of Flow and Creation – into an environment that embodies Foment run Rampant.
The most iconic example of such a place is known as a Verdant Maze – an environment of endless proliferation, deeply removed from an Entropy to temper its growth. Verdant Maze regions grow beyond the boundaries of space itself – where its landscape becomes non-Euclidian in nature, where maps are worthless and distance itself is meaningless in concept. The Green creatures here evolve rapidly, with biology that seems arcane in nature.
Environments such as Verdant Maze Regions are broadly known as Prismatic Wilds, and in contrast to Lower-Order environments, which are largely defined by civilization and mundane geology and ecosystems, are largely unsettled and dominated by Flora, Fauna, and the Whims of Prisma itself.
Prismatic Wilds are dangerous, and proper traversal requires heavy preparation and skill – and even then, there is no guarantee of a safe voyage.
