Convergence - The Malazan World Glossary | OpenFiction
Convergence
Concept
A phenomenon in the Malazan world where multiple powerful forces - gods, Ascendants, armies, magical entities - are drawn together in a single place, usually resulting in catastrophic confrontation. Convergences are not accidents but seem driven by the nature of power itself. Many of the series' climactic battles are convergences where multiple plot threads collide violently.
