On my absence

For the few, if any, who have bothered to keep up, I have been away for almost three weeks.

To keep a very long story short, NEVER find yourself in the Soian Gutter.

EVER.

    @Graingy yeah, i would certainly like to know what causes that to happen

    @YarisSedan Apologies for the crabbiness, I am very tired.
    Anyways, Mckenzie is right about the strange part. The universe itself is entirely unremarkable, there is MUCH stranger out there. The fact you fell in is the concerning aspect as that means it could potentially happen again. Getting a diagnosis for your issue would be greatly advisable. I could try pulling a few strings to get you one, but unfortunately my lack of fingers is metaphorically true as much as physically.

    if i were to somehow be randomly teleported into a different universe, or heck even an alternate reality somehow

    Same thing dingus. There are different "layers" of universe e.g. local multiverses, but no distinction in a truly meaningful way. Unless it's a retcon, but it is 200% not that. I'd know if it were that.

    @OrangeConnor2 wait really? i thought soia even have a flag in the first place, maybe it's just mandela effect, or atleast i hope so, because if i were to somehow be randomly teleported into a different universe, or heck even an alternate reality somehow, that would be terrifying honestly, and no, it definitely wasn't a roundel, at all, and infact im still highly certain that it was indeed flag, and i don't think it's a coincidence that i somehow end up there when i entered a tunnel while trying to find a quick shortcut that to my knowledge isn't marked, and yes, i have retraced my steps before and can confirm that this odd tunnel is nowhere to be seen, which makes me believe that the tunnel i went into is actually a portal into an alternate reality or a completely different dimension entirely

    As much as I hate to say it, maybe it’d be a good idea to ask Grain. It has closer ties to Soia as of present and may have more up to date information.

    @YarisSedan What?!
    That is very, very odd. Soia doesn’t have a flag, at least none I can remember, unless it was the Soian roundel. Black, purple, and orange?
    So you were in an underground tunnel system overgrown with Earthly vegetation, full of Martian dust, with burnt Soian symbols scattered around? The rest isn’t anything special, the Multiverse has tons of strange stuff (and that’s nothing!), but the indication of Soian presence, even if indirect, is perplexing. Sounds like either a Soian unit passed through and left a bad impression, or someone who knew of Soia camped out.
    Alternatively, it’s just a massive coincidence. Coincidences can be almost anything in the Greater Multiverse, you name it.

    @OrangeConnor2 no, it looked both overgrown with vegetation that looked like it should've belong on earth and weirdly enough also covered in mars dust (which nearly killed my engine several times while i was in my car form btw) i also saw a few vandalized/burnt soian flag here and there too, and i swear i kept thinking that something was stalking me, not someone, something, thank god i got out of that place with relatively minor hiccups though, but still, im still wondering to this day as to what in the actual fuck stalked me while i was there, and no, the place is definitely indoors just like an actual gutter or sewer.

    @YarisSedan Yeah, that definitely was not the gutter. I would be very concerned if you’re destabilized enough to get pulled into other universes. I’d suggest seeking a Soian contact to see if you can get a fix.
    What do you mean run down? Was there terrain? Buildings)

    @OrangeConnor2 i saw absolutely no one in there, aside from a few rusty car frames & chassis here and there occasionally, but aside from that, i saw zero living soul, the place also looked really and i mean really old and run down, like it looked like some kind of victorian gutter or something, and finding the exit is a nightmare since the damn place is like a maze, so maybe i was in a completely different place altogether

    To be clear, the gutter is a white void.

    @YarisSedan That doesn’t sound like the gutter? Were there other people there?

    @OrangeConnor2 i think a whole month actually, the place fucking sucks, and i swear i could smell something dead while i was down there but couldn't trace where it was coming for, thank god i was in my car form, because otherwise i would've ended up in the same fate as to whoever or whatever died there, and if you're wondering, no, i didn't see any MS units strangely enough, i think i was in an abandoned or untouched portion of the gutter or something?

    @YarisSedan oh, so I’m not alone in this. Great.
    How long were you waiting for your number to be called? It was two weeks for me. I camped out next to a middle-aged cop and a man who spent his time burning figurines of MS units made out of loose hair he collected and dyed.
    The MS units manning the place recognized me, but still made me wait. I suppose they did bump me up a week or so, but it’s still bloody insulting for me of all people to be stuck there! I’m not some random bloke, I used to work for Graingy!
    Granted, “used to” was probably a factor in their decision to make me stay…
