Disappearing Portals

[Crimson Rose]

Portals are those torch-lit gateways between "dungeons." When you run through them, the borders top and bottom go black, you automatically put away your weapon, and you are in a different section of the island/program. Examples are the entrance to Wicked Thicket, Wicked Thicket to Royal Caverns, King's Run to Murky Hollow, etc.

Every once in a while, when my character arrives in front of one of these portals, all I see through it is a sea scape, or an extensive beach. If I go through at this point, I go for a swim or a long walk.

Even more disconcerting - but more easily circumvented - you come back from a long hot slug of swinging your sword or whatever, lots of loot, a quest completed, and the portal dumps you in the ocean. Either that or you stand before the portal thinking, "Is this the right way back?"

Is this a glitch, are they working on this section of the program, or is this a way to tell my character - for some reason - that she shouldn't go in there?
