Eventually, there comes a day when every Wanderer discovers that they have
attained some deeper, significantly more profound understanding of how the
Realms work, thanks to their regular exposure to Vortices. This essential
knowledge is expressed in terms of rifts in time and space, from which all
Vortices are born.
With this understanding comes an improved ability to open vortices
successfully, as well as a greater resistance to the physical strains of the
creation process.
