The paper from Bryan's form wraps around himself and whoever he's touching before folding in on itself, before unfolding from nothingness at the target location. However, the sudden overload of information from this instantaneous transportation has a chance of damaging Bryan's mind.

This Travel Permit bears the signature of the Queen of the Dreamlands and entitles the barer to transit via the paths there. They hold the permit close to their chest, and close their eyes, doing their best to sleep. After a minute, they - and anyone else touching them - collapse into shimmering dreamdust, forming in the Travel Plaza in the Dreamlands. Alternatively, from there, they may take any of the paths to... anywhere, really. The Dreamlands touches everything.
--------------------------
The Travel Plaza in the Dreamlands is an expansive area, consisting of a large plaza with mirrors around the outside. These mirrors reflect various things in various worlds. Above the sky looks like a large nebula, roiling with purples and reds and yellows. Around the plaza is the Chaos Sea, made of mercury that reflects the lights from above. It rolls with soft waves. The wind is sweet.
A path leads from the Plaza to a city wall in the distance. Behind it is a large castle, a shining beacon. The path is guarded by a pair of anthropomorphic men in what appear to be civil war era uniforms. They carry weapons made of light.
The castle in the distance has high walls, made of a stone that glows softly. Inside of the walls is a small city, built around the castle proper.
Notes:
Items cannot be removed from the Dreamlands without other gifts - they collapse into dreamstuff when coming out.
The Chaos Sea will consume anything placed inside its heavy waters
Leaving 'mapped areas' is very unsafe, and easily leads to being lost in a constantly shifting haze from which escape is very difficult.

a user, perhaps inspired by the lore of the leprechaun, holds a shillelagh, a traditional Irish wooden walking stick. With a sense of wonder and anticipation, they mimic the actions of the mythical leprechaun and tap the shillelagh on the ground. The moment the stick contacts the surface, something extraordinary happens.
The ground beneath their feet begins to shimmer and swirl, opening up to reveal a glowing portal. It’s as if the tap of the shillelagh has unlocked a hidden, mystical doorway. The user, filled with a mix of excitement and a hint of apprehension, finds themselves suddenly dropping through this portal.
As they fall, the world around them transforms. Colors and lights blend in a kaleidoscope of hues, creating an ethereal tunnel around them. The sensation is otherworldly, as if they’re traveling through a conduit of magic and ancient energy.
Suddenly, the journey comes to an end as they emerge from a hole in the ground in a completely different environment.

David walks between the tombstones, and as he does, the air gets darker, heavier. He walks in a realm of sand and bone as the sights of the modern world fade away, only graves and the souls of the dead wandering the sands. Following a voice only he can hear (‘find me’), David seeks out one particular tomb among the sprawling sands. When he finds it, he enters inside, and depending on how the voice he can hear reacts, appears either above or below the tomb, either unharmed or buried alive. This was how it worked before David learned the terrain. Having wandered through the realms of death for some time now, David has started to learn which tombs to avoid, and when the voice is calling him into cursed ground. He no longer is misread by its occasional attempts to lead him astray.
To outside observers, this effect appears as a sand crusted bony limb reaching out of the grave or tomb to pull David within it in a whirling rush of sand. At the other targeted grave (or other targeted point if not using Spirit Paths), if all goes well, Vance appears rising from the grave, covered in a light dusting of sand and bone dust.
As David walks a Realm of the Dead, their voices cry out to him. “Find us.” “Find us.” “Gorgonsire, find us”. On the whisper of the wind he can almost hear a Medusa’s dying words, locked in time and sand and wreathed in bone as its head topples from its shoulders.
“Find me”
And yet for now, the echoed voice goes unanswered.
