Conjunctions

A conjunction occurs when two or more islands drift near each other. Shards, smaller islands, and wild islands can all form conjunctions with one another. During a conjunction, anyone can easily cross from one island to another, even without the Gift.

While the Delirium is vast, conjunctions occur regularly - far more regularly than random motion would predict. Many engineers and arcanists try to predict the movement of islands and the timing of conjunctions. It's a complicated and unreliable process, at least historically.

A grand conjunction occurs when three or more islands drift near each other. Grand conjunctions are more rare, but still far more frequent than random motion would predict.
