Interstitial vortex

An interstitial vortex linked the universe of the Doctor and another Earth which the sorceress Morgaine came from. The Seventh Doctor and Ace jumped into it to reach her for their final showdown. Apparently, they were allowed to cross it thanks to the intercession of the Destroyer.
