A thin spot between the Material Plane and the Feywild, where reality shimmers like heat haze and time flows unpredictably.
The air here shimmers with iridescent light, as though reality itself is a soap bubble stretched too thin. Colors are oversaturated, sounds carry with crystalline clarity, and the boundary between the Material Plane and the Feywild blurs and shifts. Flowers bloom and wilt in seconds, shadows move independently of their casters, and travelers who spend too long near the rift may find that hours have passed as days — or days as hours — in the world beyond. Fey creatures occasionally slip through, bewildered or delighted by the mortal realm.
