The Last Oddetsey

[alex_holt]

The Cucumberoo happily hands Marisa the last few editions of the newsletter - though the contents are fairly banal, if you are looking for something particular in there you may be able to find it.

"I mean, it's a cover up of some sort - it was widely announced that Doomforall stopped the black hole, and there were parties in the streets and whatnot, but then, suddenly there was a media blackout for a few days and no one has heard anything about the Lord since... None of the beings or ships who went up there returned, and that black spot appeared in the sky, and then that Gryphon turned up and was on the infonets, and shortly after that all the Powers started turning up to maintain the shield."

He lowers his voice conspiratorially

"The psycorps have been drafted to stop widespread panic, but the Church found out and let its members know..."

SPOD:

Sprondinkle fills you in that you are probably a faller, and that as this is an alternate dimension, "Earth in the 22nd Century" is a fairly meaningless description. It is possibly to get home, but only a few beings in the history of the World have managed it and that was pretty much all in ancient history that that travelling happened - Frank Goacher, Lord Doomforall and Professor Vengeance. Sprondinkle is very clear that he wouldn't like to be messing around with anything left over by them.

Other than that, he reveals you are in a neighbourhood known as the Devil's Sock Draw, and that pretty much the same is going on here as has always gone on here - vandalism, graffiti, muggings, drugs, dub-step, watching The Only Way is Essex and other despicable crimes.
