930 Familiars Gate from inside the Rift was still being considered crossrealm travel to the safety of the Sands. It have been taught differently now.
With the help of dedicated players noticing, and talking about this graphological oddity, it has since been fixed for those affected by the higher cost of rescue.
Thanks everyone!
