*Possibly the single most important object in the history of [[Lusternia]]. | |||
*Constructed on [[Avechna's Peak|Mount Dynara]], now known as Avechna's Peak, because the Portal needed to be located at the fulcrux of the entire world. | |||
*Built primarily by [[Xyl]] from plans provided by [[the Fates]]. | |||
*Only mortals may enter it; the Portal is closed to [[Elder God]]s and [[dragons]]. | |||
*They return altered and often without all their memories. | |||

"They think this is a game," I said, studying the Other as it studied me. "They don't believe in this reality." | |||
"Does it matter?" asked Clotho. "They shape its story nonetheless." | |||
