The Mindtouch

It was an effective, if unsettling, method of communication. By reaching out to another Cavalier conducting the Rift in a light fashion, like a whisper across a feather, you could make a mental bridge to their mind. The communication was all sensation, no words or coherent thoughts. He conferred the horrors by their stench and wrongness, through sight of the scythe-like talons and bony carapace. He conveyed their range similarly. Breaking contact always left a sense of nausea and emptiness. The joining of two minds was useful for this, but too close in ways to the arts the sorcerers practiced.
