And I'm an Angel of Knowledge, sweets. Of course I remember what you said about it.
It's a sort of Rift which shifts you into a more abstracted schema of reality in which you don't technically exist, can't cognize or interact with the rest of the world as you knew it. But at the same time it progects a vague psychic or morphogenic impression of you which makes people less likely to register you as gone. A bit creepy, actually.
The upside is that on occasion people stumble into these Rifts – and it often takes set groups, though no one is sure why or what connects them – and no one notices they're missing until they stumble out a few days or weeks or months or years later having no clue what's going on. I mean, the perception effect is so pronounced that there've been documented cases of Guardian Angels losing their Wards to the Rift and not noticing.
