Portal Stone
Ancient stones, older than the Age of Legends, that move travelers who can read their symbols between distant places and into other worlds where time itself may run differently.
Portal Stones carry a traveler from one Stone to another, either to a different place in this world or into another reality entirely, provided the user knows the meaning of their guiding symbols. Time does not run consistently between worlds: a day spent in one might cost a year at home, or the reverse. The worlds themselves vary. Some are pale reflections that had little chance of ever being; others are nearly as solid as this one and hold the same people. The Stones were made before the Age of Legends, and the Aes Sedai of that age used them to travel to the other worlds and study them, work thought to have paved the way for the making of the Ways. A single Stone does not carry symbols for every world, and there are believed to be worlds no Stone reaches at all.
