Places and objects

An incomplete guide to some of the places, objects and creatures of the House and Secondary Realms.

The Extremely Grand Canal

The canal is used to move records from the Guilds to the storage lake. The water in the canal can move uphill because it is textually charged. It divides into regular currents that move up and down at various speeds. Anything with writing or type on it will be taken by the current, but the water will actively try to drown anyone not wearing the correct (text-covered) clothing, as made by the Paper Pushers.
