Solerian Rift: Difference between revisions

The Rift is also the birthplace of thousands of infant stars, which increases the ambient radiation of the cloud immensely. This combination of radiation, and the buildup of ionic charges in the particles of the Rift contribute in the formation of titanic electromagnetic storms that frequently sweep through the Rift. These "lightstorms" - often hundreds of light years in diameter - are capable of swallowing an entire fleet while and leaving behind only miniscule amounts of debris. Obviously, the Rift is an exceedingly dangerous region to travel.

Conventional wisdom states that the Rift is impassible, but this is not strictly true. A species of mystics called the [[Tiins-la Sanhedrim]] frequently traverses the Rift in response to mysterious "calls from beyond the Rift" that the Tiins-la claim to hear. While the Tiins-la are an inscrutable, eccentric group, they nonetheless travel the Rift with relative ease.
