Editing Crucible:Night City (section)

== The D'Harque Rift ==

When the demonic aliens known as the [[D'Harque]] invaded Earth, they opened a vast dimensional rift in the skies above Los Angeles. Through that wound in reality, witnesses could see the skies above the D'Harque homeworld: a dimension of perpetual darkness, cold stars, black clouds, and strange lights that did not correspond to any known constellation.

The invasion was eventually defeated by the combined forces of the [[Guardians]] and [[Watchstar West]], but the rift did not close. Instead, it stabilized overhead, forming a permanent aperture between Earth and the D'Harque dimension. The rift no longer serves as an active invasion gateway, at least not openly, but it remains one of the most visible scars left by the war.

The sky above Night City is therefore not a true local sky. It is a view into another reality.
