59 notes.

Riftway Stones have appeared at several altars throughout Telon and will allow faster transit through their magic. Scholars believe that these stones have simply been “out of phase” with the rest of Telon since the time of the cataclysm. In order to use a Riftway Stone to teleport you must acquire a Riftway Shard – now available at general goods vendors.
Travelers must attune at each Riftway Stone in order to return to said stone via another Riftway Stone on the same network.
There are currently three known Riftway Networks – each stone in the world belongs to one of these three networks.
The Riftway Stones at New Targonor, Ahgram, and Tawar Galan are only destinations – and may be reached via any Riftway Network.
