But a black storm is spreading across the Wheel. Should the holy image be marred, the world will suffer a similar injury. Linked by the mystic energies of the Infinite, the Wheel and world are one. For it is then that the very fabric of the world must be rewoven. Every hundred years the sacred rite takes on added significance.
