As violent as the vortex is, it does appear to offer passage within its turbulent depths, obscured by the dirt, dust and debris picked up as it spins in place.

  • Portal Closure: With a sharp crack, the ice arch fractures and explodes into a cloud of crystals and frost carried away in the wind.
  • Portal Description: The ice arch looks like it could have grown naturally within the depths of an arctic cave. Its walls are both lovely to behold as well as seemingly dangerous, glittering and glassy in the light but jagged-edged and sharp to the touch. A cold and steady haze spills from the arch, obscuring what lies on the other side of its icy walls.
