It’s only theory, but … “soft” spots where the magic can leak out into the normal world, like where the ley line events happened, etc. Possibly where Asura waypoints are built, too.

That’s usually what this sort of thing means in US English.

In the world are hidden events where you use the stabilizer to open rifts. Is that not a magical soft spot where a rift may occur? I simply assumed the datamined stuff was from an incomplete release, so until a dev says something…

…aaand, over in the reddit GW2 forum they have discovered yellow text showing up with this string, on the far side of a portal. I’d suggest that if you care you head over there and find out.

It’s basically nothing, the endpoint when you jump through a portal.

A dev also confirmed that the rifts are to be continued and the mentioned hidden achievement from ~2 months ago is not related to the rifts, but to something else:
