 Ahem. The brown fluid. Down There. [[Paramount Queen]]. I was off. On? Off.

-Down There is an [[orthogonality]] with one of its turning points in the eastern [[Dulalian Empire]]. From what I can tell from local stories, Royal Dulalia stumbled into the turning point and returned, weeks later, rife with an over-protecting madness that wouldn't let anyone near the transport. Over many years, he built walls, rooms, and floors around the turning point, and became increasingly maniacal about its protection. Nowadays, the actual room that contains the turning point is surrounded by a vast prison network storing all the incoming travelers to our own orthogonality. No one save Royal Dulalia goes in, no one save Royal Dulalia comes out. I've tried. I've asked. I've pleaded. I've dressed up like a maniacal and paranoid god-king and tried to fakir my way past. I've enlisted [[Aerle]]s to burrow underneath, only to fail for one reason or another. Curse Royal Dulalia. His madness consumes not only he, but me.

 I've not been able to find another turning point. I'd be a lot happier if I did.

-[[Bobby Shwarmph]] is a quack - and not one of those cute and cuddly quacks like Altifur Witherspoon - but a bonafide, conspiracy-laden, smells-sorta-funny, shelter-your-children quack. As an endlessly-spouting quack, however, he does occasionally get ''something'' right within the pages of [[Aliens Everywhere]], and '''Down There''' is one of them. The problem is, I'm not entirely sure exactly what he did get right.
