LocaleTitleDescription
1 – 19Leatherbound Study The walls, the floor, the desk, even the bodies of the pens – it's all been covered in […] skin […] worked with such loving care that the grain of the leather runs in the same direction across the whole room. The stacks of paper […] are, of course, vellum.
20 – 29Ink Repository The walls […] each hold […] little glass bottles. There's a whole section dedicated to different shades of black. Another where all the inks are the colour of blood – in different states of drying out, ranging from vibrant crimson to dull brown.
30 – 39Door Storage A facility for building more of this maze? Here, stored in purpose-built scaffolds of pine slats, are doors. […] cheap doors and expensive doors. Sliding paper doors in the Japanese style. A range of folding doors – two, three, four, or even five leaves.
40 – 49Optical Gallery More of a workshop, really. Telescopes and microscopes jumbled on shelves. A small watchmaker's lathe for making brass fittings. A grinder for making lenses. […] piles of glass blanks, […] waiting to be shaped.
50 – 69Glim-Mosaic Library This room is illuminated from every direction; shards of glim are encrusted in […] a glowing mosaic. In this context, you can see the subtle distinction in colour from one piece of glim to the next: turquoise, aquamarine, chartreuse, teal, apocyan...
70 – 89Tattooed Office Slanted writing desks with inkwells; wood-panelled walls. There are patterns on the furniture, patterns on the walls – drawings in black ink. Chess pieces. Tarot cards. Abstract signs and symbols.
90 – 100Circular Observatory This room is dominated by a large telescope – an intricate construction of brass and mirrors, pointed up at the Roof. Look through it, and you can see a formation of False-Stars arrayed in a spiral.
Coiling Ever DeeperSecond Paragraph
5 – 9There's a scent of ozone in the air.
10 – 14All your hairs are standing on end. The air here is charged with static.
15+Static electricity crackles as you move, sending little jolts through your skin.
