Veil Tear

A tear in the fabric of reality. Approach with extreme caution.

Mals Infer is a Veil Tear located on the southern portion of Kouréas. All Veil Tears in the world carry the “Mals” prefix — this naming convention identifies them as sites where reality has been ruptured.


What is a Veil Tear?

A Veil Tear is a wound in the fabric of the world — a place where the barrier between planes has been permanently damaged. Demons, aberrations, and other planar entities can emerge through them. The tear at Mals Infer is one of at least two known tears on Kouréas and Eritessa.
