It’s also why I wasn’t particularly surprised by rifts when I came here, because we’d already experienced something similar. And I’d strived to put those visitors back where they came from.

Where I come from, if our equivalent of a rifter stays in a universe which isn’t their own — if you keep wearing those barriers between worlds thin, with too much travel — it can trigger a thing called an incursion. Two worlds colliding, and one of them usually winds up destroyed. An entire universe gone, everyone dead. So I am, needless to say, extremely relieved to hear that that isn’t the case here and that rifters have been here for years without the world ending.
