He released all the air out of his lungs at once and stepped through the rift. And just as he had thought, the rift wasn’t connecting two parts of a space together like a wormhole, but it was a portal that connected to a completely different space.
Just as he stepped through with his leg, it disappeared from his vision. But he could still feel it completely fine.
He clenched his fists, mustering his strength—he completely passed through.
