Chapter Forty Seven: What Exists Above

 In the fluid where the different Enclosures were submerged (whether through the compendium of mythology or something else), above it, operating under the spell of the moving Waterbred Dragons, is a lake known simply to many as Lake Geyser. This lake is similar to any other lake that can be found on the Earth's crust, although instead of a prestine blue water that is characteristic of a paradise, the fluid that compose the lake is a black water that is entirely different, and too powerful in its defined molecular composition.

Alchemy may refer to this substance as having parallel similaritues with the Oil of Antimony, although the development of this reckless conclusion may be subject to further debate. But suffice it to say, for this instance, that the fluid itself is, indeed, a distinct Alchemical substance that may be studied under the watchful eye of an expert in the discipline of the severely complicated Alchemical changes and processes.

This fluid in consideration is what changes the metaphysical substance of greed into something that can then be metabolized (Alchemists refer to it as "butter") by the organic systems of the evolutionary anatomy of the mysterious Waterbred Dragons.

Further above the lake is a central fortress built by the Cyborgs once they have claimed the area as part of their Controlled Territories. The realm of the Cyborgs is known as the Woolswood Federation, a perfected pseudo-state governed by the most qualified and the most just from all the known characteristics attributed to the nature of a courageous Cyborg.

With all computations and artificial intelligence that has been programmed for the well-functioning of their mechanical parts, the Cyborgs, nonetheless, rely mostly on the wisdom of their biological underpinnings, more than the efficiency of their coded machine languages. Wisdom is a prized possession within the political arena of their kind. It is the righful place of the many electoral issues held to account and bitterly fought in the open battleground.

The fortress being referred herein (the port that is directly on top of Lake Geyser) is called Harbour Mischiefs. Within the Harbor, there are many ships docked to its many mooring, those ships that bring Alchemical substances into the Cyborg City, the capital and largest urban area, just a few nautical miles from where the glorious harbor is beautifully situated.

Also, the seas between the Lake (after passing through a Gulf) is where the Recycle Bin is located. This facility is responsible for the effective cleaning of Alchemical waste byproducts (mainly those composed of butter), ready to be released into the Lake.

The Woolswood Federation had no idea that somewhere below this glorious Harbor lies the New World of America, and that the Waterbred Dragons actually live in this part of the Underworld, the same creatures that feed on their waste products. The fluid is not the source of the magic as they have known to believe.

No one knows that deep below the great Lake Geyser, there is a portal therein that leads to an escape into another dimension, a wonderful door that leads away from every curse available in this part of the universe, and into something new and beautiful.
