This process allows for faster-than-light travel, as vessels move along streams of essence that bypass conventional space. The technique is not without peril: a destabilized drive can cause catastrophic lifeforce drain, leaving crews desiccated or vessels infused with parasitic entities from the plane. | This process allows for faster-than-light travel, as vessels move along streams of essence that bypass conventional space.
