I've come across a time rift in the soul cairn similar to the one atop the throat of the world. however this one is purple and nothing happens when i activate any elderscroll inside of it. I'm very curious as to what it may be, is it significant? is it just a decoration? i have no clue. if anyone has any idea what it is let me know. thanks.

Anyway, it's just some random decor. Probably. Have you uncovered a conspiracy dating all the way back to the far-off year of 2012?

Do you know roughly where it is? There are all sorts of strange visual distortions in the Soul Cairn ha.

Approaching the prison valerica is being held behind the barrier, there's an area with a couple chests and there's a staircase that leads up the rift

To the left of the barrier
