Usage

Place the rift ward on the ground. Theninsert a temporal gear as fuel in the rift ward. It will rotate and make some noise. The rift ward will "block" temporal rifts present as well as preventing new rifts from appearing for 21 days in a 50 blocks radius. There is a 2.5% chance of failing to block a rift. Its information box will tell you how many rifts it has prevented so far and how long it will be operating before you need to refuel it.

Spoilers ahead!

Since this device is crafted using Jonas parts , it is safe to assume that it was created at first by inventor Jonas Falx.

Jonas Falx is a very important character in the game's story. Several Lore Books mention his name, but most important of all is the five-part narrative entitled Reflection .
