Harlequins' home zone

[Fantômas]

We visited the harlequins base. More later.

It was all Dana's idea...

So, I have been trying to make pen pals with the void which used to be Clem's backroom. Today was the day to shout down all distractions and realize my goal of stupid exploration. since I am against all animal testing and not yet so cold blooded as to toss in a human, I volunteered myself to myself for my self edification. Wearing a glow stick bedazzled space suit, I stepped into the black "For science!" For quite a while Joshua and Glenn didn't know if I was alive or not, and if I could've communicated with them I would have said that I didn't know either. Thankfully I didn't need the space suit because I probably didn't get the oxygen regulated anyway and the unanswered airplane folded notes cushioned my fall not one bit, but it was okay, although things were very odd indeed. I am very glad that after what felt like to me as no hesitation Joshua and Glenn followed me in. What great companions, almost as loyal as Pretty the bad-tempered mule.

I can share more about what was there if the Powers the Be permit it.

The zone a pocket zone, shaped like a table tennis bat is shape, with the handle extending out for 81 km (ie long enough to shadow walk)

All the colours there are the negative of what they normally look like.

If you step through Clems back room, you fall and land on top of something like a giant black soap bubble

The layout is Forest - Fields - town - castle

Most of the items are like a poor imitation of the real thing, as if whoever created the pocket realm did not have a firm understanding them, eg lack of botany knowledge when creating the forest.

The trees, town, castle are all made of a hard plastic/rock type substance.

Forest - Every tree is a copy of each other, where the tree looks like someone thought a tree looks something like this. There is no wildlife, insects etc

The fields are 'manned' by blobs that look a bit like the Dras in Fog Jungle zone, except a bit more primitive in appearance and intelligence. They only seem to say one thing - "Hail Melison"(?) Its hard to make out exactly what they say as their mouths are not properly formed. The soil and crops appear to have been imported in from a different zone.The crops staple style crops. Mildred, Reb and I managed to find the rubbish where the bags the grain, fertiliser etc had come in. The labels and materials appear to be from a modern (20th/21st century) tech wise zone. The compnay, country was not one we were family with. Labels were in English. I took a few for further examination

Whenever the Harlequin (usually in groups of 4) go by the blobs would line the path and say "Hail Melison' (?)

The town is just building shells. look like someones idea of what a medieval town would look like. Things like shutters are molded on, don't open. Were were able to enter in several of the buildings and I was able to create a trump of the interior of the inn, so please don't dump stuff there. Was not successful in making more than one.

The castle only had one entrance, with windows etc fake. The initial rooms where roughly formed and empty. The throne room was the most well formed.


Mel, who some of us met in Amber maybe??

- A rug that really tied the room together and smelt faintly of urine

How did the Harlequins react to you being there or did they not see you?

[thad]

We aavoided. Was tempted to say "Hail Melison"? to them to se e if they woudl leave us along. Or they might just leave us along anyway if not instructed to do more. But we didn't test.

Nice run down Joshua. Here is a personal account. The world is awful because it has no animals, not even a sound track of them. We landed in a forest, if you can call a vague tree shape repeated a bunch a forest, the ground left no tracks and didn't even seem to be dirt. Time and space were distorted along the outer edge except for a small strip that led away from the center of this land. It seemed long enough for shadow walking out. Walking in we passed farms, soil and farmhouses. Farmers resembling the blob people in French Vietnam waited at the road side for us to pass and greeted "Hail Malus" (not sure of spelling). We entered an entirely uninhabited village that was laid out like someone was trying to remember what the middle ages might have been. Because we are a cautious bunch we went into the inn to speak, it was floor and walls. I changed out of my spacesuit at this point, I know you were all curious. There was a castle with a tower in the middle and we saw harlequins leaving it. With sneakiness, we found our way to the throne room. This was the first place with detail, Joshua went through his whole note book of insignia and we didn't see any, just white and black checker pattern. 20 harlequin armed guards lined the center throne. A masked female was inspecting a hover board in the style of Back to the Future. She took it through a door further behind. We left, regathered our belongings (the spacesuit was okay) and saw harlequins coming out of the shadow walk forest path. They were holding something that looked like but was not an Anal Refresher and headed to the castle. I was glad we were able to return to where the colors aren't inverse from what I'm used to.

Did Melison? create the Harlequins? Or get them from somewhere? They are very realisitic ,. theat they can move through that hsadow suggests they are quite unique

[thad]

And if the harlequins can track you through the shadow then that should be easy to lead them into a trap, yeah?

[PotatoJedi]

So… is it Melison or Malus?

[Scott]

I heard "Hail Malice".

[thad]

Them blobds aint got proper mouths so it was har dto tell.
