| The difference in this game is a Rift - a tear in the world allows creatures from another dimension to invide! | They start as a tear in the air... you can crack it open if you wish... | What comes out can be scary! Meatball my pet is hiding her head in the ground thinking she's safe... foolish animal!! |

| They spout out creatures from the planes... this one has creatures from the Air Elements... | This one is a death rift... undead come out of these... if you don't close them down, they keep pouring out vile creatures until they overrun an area. | They can occur just about anywhere!! |

| Since this is the holiday season, special holiday rifts have opened up. | Though they look peaceful, they have malivant creatures that wouldn't mind having you as a present. | The winds blow, the ground shakes, lightning abound is just a few of the things you get to face... not counting the creatures!! |

| But you do get rewards for closing these special holiday rifts... I got a reindeer mount to ride around in! | Also, like in WOW, you can be changed into different creatures due to a spell or to infilltrate the enemy... | Or just for fun as in this bat... |

| I found this out of the ordinary spot in an impossible place to get to and started dancing with the squirrels | When you mimic them...you get into sync... | And then you earn the title "Dancing with Squirrels" |
