A spatial rift is a temporary tear in the Web of Magic. This opening creates a rift between two locations, akin to a spell like 'mass teleport', transporting an object across a continent, a world, or even to other systems. The latter is the domain of voidships equipped with materials and a power source beyond the means of most civilizations. The moon-like Eye of Gith is the finest example of an entity capable of hopping across systems. Those who dwell upon this ancient transport use it to move between the Astral Sea and the realms of Nawirrûs.
Spatial rifts are widely regarded as exceedingly perilous, if not outright forbidden magic. Disruptive to sources of arcane energy, even arcanists with memorized spells can sometimes find their magic items rendered completely useless. Though fleeting in duration, lasting mere seconds, spatial rifts constitute an assault on the Weave, frequently drawing the attention of a weave spider or two.
The utilization of a spatial rift necessitates the employment of a buoy for any prudent captain. Although costly at 500,000 gold, these devices will safeguard you, your crew, and your cargo. Regrettably, nothing can withstand the relentless onslaught of a pair of weave spiders. Today, and solely today, you have the opportunity to acquire two Spider Magnets for the price of 800,000 gold.
