	This interpretation is also common among followers of [[Orcish Shamanism]], who lie the blame at the feet of angry spirits - usually the same sorts of spirits and outsiders who are appearing from the portals caused by the Great Rift itself.

			Some schools of magic in the [[Shimmering Shore]] that adhere to versions of the Correspondence Hypothesis place the blame for the incident on [[Anghara]]. This is of course vehemently denied by the scholars of the city of [[Baghar]].

	Some students of [[Ars Magica]], especially those in [[Bastonia]] or with strong ties to the [[Bastonian Pantheon]], believe that the storm is yet another example of the persecution of mortality by [[the Enemy]], with a few blaming [[San ~~Verrus~~]] specifically, and believing that the storm is a result of the Mad God of Magic attempting to escape [[the Abyss]]. Students of the same school more closely aligned with the [[High Elven Pantheon]] may also come to a similar conclusion, instead blaming [[Hycis Uriris]].

The '''Great Rift''' is an impressive Gate-Storm near the geographical center of the [[Shimmering Shore]], which is considered the epicenter of the [[Great Collapse]]. The storm continually opens wild portals from planes documented and undocumented into the wilderness of this area, and the arcane energies that radiate from it have changed and twisted the landscape almost as much as the creatures who arrive on [[Ahren]] through such portals.

The cause of, and solution to, the Great Rift (and indeed, the collapse) are the subject of vigorous study and debate in schools of the learned such as those as [[Sylvestri Point]], [[Heroka]], or [[Petrenea]].
