In a place like SL, where real-world physics don't always apply and *anything* can and does happen, there's always a chance. It could be that they ended up in some other world, and simply can't communicate with this one.


I, too, hold on to this thought as a distinct possibility. The Elemental responsible for my transformation into a half-gazelle explained to me that the Grid is a universal (or pan-universal) system of lines and nodes for energy transfer - the world itself is then 'hung' on this 'scaffolding'. Across dimensions separated by nothing more than a vibrational difference, worlds attach and use this system of energy transference in different ways.

As the worlds are only separated by a vibration, any force powerful enough to shift one's normal standing rate will pop one through to another world, as documented in Frontier's wonderful journal:
http://frontierhorizon.blogspot.com/2007/07/new-horizon.html
http://frontierhorizon.blogspot.com/2007/07/hitting-ground-running.html

It is equally possible for one to become trapped in between worlds, in the chaos and flux of the non-worlds, the ever-changing spaces of wild energy.

If Magellan has been trapped in this flux place, it's no wonder if he's been somewhat confused about making his way back...

Campsite now occupied!
04-23-2008 20:16
The campsite is showing new signs of occupation. By the Magellan Linden Bear. The bear is created and owned by Nicole Linden, but is currently inside the tent.


Editted to add: Enjoy exploring the open land while it's open. Several sims just turned purple on the map.

I had to go see this.... it's a wonderful bear! Has a red handlebar mustache, goggles, and big hiking boots, and a backpack complete with umbrella, notepad, mess kit and steaming coffeepot. Have to go back and take a pic when I have more time.

Ruddy Ducks! At work now so can't come in and see the wee chap until tonight...this is going to be a looooong 11 hours!

Hope Magellan can sleep at night without his bear to cuddle, poor thing :(

Maybe Nicole found Magellan's bear somewhere and left it in the tent for him? This would suggest Magellan is still at Gaeta... It's all so confusing.

My suspicion is dat, much like th' rest of us, Nicole jes wants t'make sure Magellan is okay. She prob'ly made an left th' bear for Magellan, in case he comes back to dat camp an needs someone t' talk to. Sure beats a volleyball with a face on it, if ya ask me.

Field Notes, Marianne McCann, age 5 1/2 (excerpts)

"... I did manage to make a little time, though. I did look much at the crash site since th' bear showed up, but I did do some analysis on it. It is mostly made by nicole, though a lot of the pack an gear on th' bear comes from elsehwere. Stuff from Arcadia Asylum, YadNi Monde, an other peoples. Maybe Nicole left it there in th' same way people put files in cakes? Definitely one way to get some supplies to Magellan, I s'pose.

It also reminded me a bit of Harry Linden's crash in Mohrr, down to a bear stashed in th' tent..."

"...While checking out the Korean channel, I did wonder if Magellan ever explored here. This land has been gridded rought around th' same time as Gaeta, and it seems dat he was also in Bay City, which ain't even fully in th' grid, too..."

"...the volcano, which dun seem to have a name or nuttin', reminded me more of G'al than Pomponio. I wonder if dis, too, is a place dat the ancient peoples did newbie sacrifices? A small group of atoll-style huts on piers sure makes me tink so..."

There's something about Magellan in Demien sim ;)

Korean channel? Volcano? What am I missing again?:)
BTW, have you noticed three new pictures in Jeska's photostream? ONe is Magellan inside his ship, and two shows some lighthouse with mysterious man watching the ship... he is only visible from back, has black coat and black hair... Any ideas where could this lighthouse be located?

The Korean channel is in the middle of the old southern mainland.. The Demien sim, which Sling mentions above, is part of that area. In the channel are some islands, one of which has a small volcano on it.

Hmn... it's not a lighthouse: it's a mooring mast for an airship. No idea who the man in black is, but I have to assume he's kinda important.

I'm only seeing one person on board, though. None of his crew.

As to the Korean Channel and the volcano within it. It could be a french duck, but in the big, long channel on the Korean Continent (the southernmost of the continents) is a volcanic island.

I need to keep an eye on dat photostream. Not sure if these are telling us where he's going or where he's been. I suspect the latter. They dun tell us where he is *now* however.

"Old Southern Mainland" is what's usually referred to as Sansara. The Korean continent is the one referred to as Jeogeot by some.

Beginning of the End in Gaeta
04-27-2008 14:56
It was bound to happen sooner or later. Civilization has found Gaeta's northern bounds. Land Barons with no sense of planning have carved up several northern regions without any sense of rhyme or reason that I can fathom.

I wonder how much longer Magellan's campsite will be safe.

I saw this as well. Sad to see it terraced and such. For what it's worth, it makes that land *less* desirable to me.
