>"Well, I guess it's 'Not-Hands', whatever that means," says Maribel. "So probably nothing to do with whatever Hands are for."
>Up ahead, you can see the walls open up to the the outside. Unlike last time, it doesn't seem be a balcony, but rather an entryway like the one you took. You think you can also sense a bit of less-instability among the borders up ahead.

>You make your way toward lesser instability. It is not so much an air, it seems, as a fold upon the borders. Or so it seems, until you can get a closer look. It is not so much a fold as it is the edge of a long, thin gap that seems to stretch out for quite some distance. You think this may be some tendril of the gap that brought you here from the forest below last time, like a loose thread from a garment. While it is not a fold, you may be able to employ it in much the same way.
>As you get closer, Maribel frowns and looks around. "Is there something here?"

>Normally, yes. It would be quite easy to follow it. However, the instability here may make that too difficult. If nothing else, you could probably use it to extend your senses as you have with other folds; the instability shouldn't interfere with that.

>You feel along the fold, letting your sense stretch along it.
>It touches upon a couple of islands, or at least draws close to them. You can't really make out many details about them, other than that they are landmasses in the sky. But you do note the presence of a gap on one of the islands, some miles away to the south, and some hundreds of feet above.
