Tasi falls a sleep in the transit train and begins what appears to be an astral projection.
Her astral body separates from her spiritual body connected by a tether some call a silver cord. Notice the alignment of her cord in panel two with the silver pillar of light in panel 4? Not a literal connection but visually a figurative one (there will be very, very subtle visual hints of what this might mean throughout this book, but clearer meanings definitely occur in book two). More discussion about astral projection, astral travel and the silver cord will happen in later pages, but for now, note that her astral body has what appears to be nodes all over. These too have meaning (also explained later in book two).
Obviously there is a purpose in what she is seeing and where she is astral traveling. But what does it all mean?

STARGATE!!! No intentions of lifting that portal for our story purposes. The geometric shape above is called a Clifford Torus and, as you read (and see) deeper in the story, that shape is reoccurring for a reason (that is not explained in Book One– but might be in Book Two– provide we get to finish it)!
Now if you were referring to the Stargate type shape that the white haired being seems to be coming out of, that is not a portal. It is attached to the white haired being with a silver-corded tether coming out from the back of his head. What is it then? That explanation may come later…
