The Sargasso Gate is a barrier generator hidden in an undersea cave deep beneath Sargasso Point. It is destroyed when Fei and his companions submerge the Yggdrasil beneath the ocean, then launch from there in their Gears to reach the cave where Solaris built the gate. Forces from Solaris in the form of Emeralda and the Wel-Gear Rattan mount a defense of the gate but ultimately fail, allowing the party to rescue Emeralda and destroy the gate.
The Gates[]
The gate functioned in conjunction with two other gates: one in Ignas, one beneath the Ethos Headquarters, forming a triangle around Solaris. The three gates connect with a fourth gate, located inside the Solaris capital of Etrenank, to create a barrier that phased Solaris out of sync with the rest of the world, rendering it invisible and inaccessible to outside forces.
When the gates are destroyed, Solaris phases back into sync with the world.
