... just consider the possibilities should this be the case ... If Doug opens up to this node, not only would he shine like a beacon to everyone using magesight in the area, he would also warp the astral plane and perhaps suck astral beings towars himself.
He would probably not stay long enough || use enough node mana, but if he could ... What would happen if someone could *use up* that node? Even to some substantial part? Suppose the node does not get replenished and the local mage community finds out how to funnel it into their spells :-)
