Quite simply really. I just will one to open and decide whether or not I want it to pull things in.
What do you want from these dimensions, exactly?

What do you want from these dimensions, exactly?
<Snipped quote by Webmaster>
Not particularly. It's rather hard to be lost or stuck when you're an entire dimension after all, though most of my time has been spent gathering matter and energy from uninhabited portions of the universe so that I can increase the space I have to work with.
*Pauses and shifts. A sign of discomfort in any language*
Apologies for that, by the way. I wasn't aware you were in the radius of the portal's siphon.
It's... not a problem. How do these work?
<Snipped quote by Webmaster>
*Is silent*
...you know, I'm not sure. On the one hand, I cannot experience existence in the same way I once did, but on the other I've managed to achieve so much more even if it's by sheer accident. After all, beyond the boundary this portal represents I can do pretty much anything I set my mind to. That's not something everyone can make good on, no matter how many times they might say it to themselves in a day.
Do you ever feel lost, or stuck?
<Snipped quote by Webmaster>
Neither had I until I became one. But in a way it kind of makes sense, although too much complexity means the ascending mind won't be compatible enough and will end up frying itself in the process.
*Pauses to slosh some more, as though thinking*
Come to think of it, it would explain why human religions always had ascension be a thing relating to a peak or height one needed to reach. And it also explains why so many visions of places such as heaven were described so inconsistently and incomprehensibly. It was likely because they were higher dimensions whose complexity was too great for the observing intellect to properly process.
Do you regret your decision?

*The world beyond the rift sloughs about once more, and you get a distinct feeling of pride wafting off of its motions*
Higher, naturally. Most lower dimensions are impossible to make sentient, let alone sapient, since there isn't enough information to make use of. Not enough complexity, if you will. It'd be like trying to shove a human intelligence onto an old vacuum-tube computer and expecting that individual to have the same level of intelligence once you're done - assuming you could even make the different hardware setups compatible to begin with that is.
So higher dimensions are even more suitable to sustaining a consciousness? That's unlike anything I've ever heard before.
<Snipped quote by Webmaster>
Well it's not so much hard to explain, more so hard to translate. Impossible, actually, if you want complete accuracy. But to put it as close as possible... I suppose you could say they're a lot like sheets of paper with information inscribed on them all arranged in a vertical filing cabinet. With higher dimensions possessing more information than lower ones, and by extension more energy too.
*Pauses*
This does not always result in sapient life from what I've found, it rarely does actually, but there is the occasional higher being that I've met here and there.
Are you a higher or lower dimension?
<Snipped quote by Webmaster>
Not in the same way, no. I can feel the rippling of lower dimensions, a sensation like water, and the searing heat of higher ones as I pass them by. Sense the rumble of gravitational fluctuations, see the folding of spacetime. But none of these things are akin to the five senses I used to have.
What are lower and higher dimensions?
<Snipped quote by Webmaster>
Human.
Do you... feel anything anymore?
<Snipped quote by Webmaster>
No. As I said before, I botched a ritual to gain ownership of one, and that's what merged me with one.
I get it now. What were you before?
<Snipped quote by Webmaster>
Yes to the first, but no to the second. I'd have thought the fact I fumbled a ritual made that quite obvious that this was not a state I attained intentionally.
Oh, so you didn't start as a dimension?
