Oblivion Gate

At the center of the abyss, at the nadir of existence lies the Oblivion Gate. This roughly-spherical mass of indeterminate size (for it swells and shrinks; no two observers can agree on its size) is a living wound in the fabric of the Dream, the cancer from which the jotnari spring. Its spores, they carry destruction and entropy into all things. It is said that any entity that touches or is touched by the Gate, no matter how slight the contact, ceases to exist, devoured by that thing, although absence of thing-ness might be a better, although clumsier phrase. It is also said that it reaches out tendrils of itself and that to get too close is to be drawn inexorably closer until one is destroyed.
