[Torg] Aysle horizon

Yesterday I was pondering the appearance of the horizon i Aysle, and how 
visual aids such as telescopes and spells would affect what a character 
sees in the far distance.

Since the world is mostly flat, the field of vision goes on until 
blocked by something, or until things appear so small as not to be 
visible at all. Atmospheric interference should also enter into the 
picture, making things appear hazy and indistinct (particularly across 
warm water, hot deserts etc.).

I do, however, have problems visualizing this myself, and therefore also 
describing it to others.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Pointers?
