Sprite Bunkers Setting idea

I had an idea for a setting where three types of cities exist in a massive dust desert where manna flows and a secret Astral plain overlaps reality, with a dieselpunk esthetic for this world. With a permanent dust storm.

The first city type would be the trench City. Cities set up to harvest and collect residue and vapers from refinement, turning to items and potions. The vast network of tunnels is capped by a domed roof of metal panels. sprawling to the production sector, the housing sector, and an entry sector that's heavily guarded. With "The Bunker" Being the heart of the city's production. Mixing a mine and an oil rig. with coral-like growths around it before only empty moon pools that contain no life unless in the astral. The fumes reveal strange shapes of creatures. With Humans stranded near it gaining strange powers but dire ailments. Plants also are affected by this well's nature. (If fantasy or sci-fi races were to exist, this could be how it happens. Like dwarves becoming after generations of exposure).

The next type of city would be oasis cities, founded often in cavers with life and spirits plenty. Frequently filled with ruins of stone and tin. Alongside spirits and spirits also taking residence here. Often creating many a pattern, and plenty of food. (Their exposure could lead to people like orks, who have been here for a long time in these places, and defending it from outsiders, they have effectively become worrier cultures who have some plant-like features).

The last one is Storm Cities. rarely seen, but occasionally descends to the ground in their sealing domes to trench towns and oasis cities to trade and resupply. It's effectively a magical city that lifts itself above the constant dust storm, powered by sprites, so they often go to the trench cities to refuel. growing edible foods and magical items. They also tend to have some large long-range artillery and defenses. All while the more fortunate live high above the storm. Usually having a Patreon being who lends out their power in exchange for power and control. Maybe even giving a safer way to gain magic (Think like a warlock in RPGs and you have an idea what this would be like. This could also be similar to Dust Wells mutations, With these powerful beings having packs with this city for so long, they'll begin to show features of their Patreon over generations. Maybe this is how elves were created).

Meanwhile, the astral plane would draw a lot from the Stormlight archive's spren mixed with spirits from Avitar the last air bender, and bits of Spirited Away's spirits. With a whole world that's invisible to the naked eye. Those without the right items or magic are unlikely to see the environment. Like grassy fields that echo memories maid in their invisible fields, and flowers that grow on battlefields and can grant you the ability to weald some skill from the worriers who fought on it, at the risk of waking up an angry spirit who was attached to that flower. It can also be how people navigate the storm, with the Dust wells producing massive pillars of light that reach up like auroras, that are used to navigate the world.
