I'll bet someone's been fooling arond with higher dimensions ...

The wonder is that Klaus seems to have gone up against Albia almost as an equal.

Evoking Yggdrasil & Minas Tirith, very nicely done.

[occams_pyramid]

That looks disturbingly similar to Castle Heterodyne.

[ffutures]

Beat me to it! Definite Yggdrasil look.

[madfilkentist]

That had me puzzled till I saw Heine's Yggdrasil on the Wikipedia page.

If Minas Tirith and Caras Galadhon loved each other very much...

"The wonder is that Klaus seems to have gone up against Albia almost as an equal."

Hard to say. Albia doesn't seem interested in ruling Europa, and "stop fighting!" is Klaus's reason for empire; if England is well-behaved, he wouldn't have reason to attack. My impression is that tension is more the friction of rival spheres of influence than anything else, but my memory isn't solid.

As for Albia's power, it's hard to judge. She's obviously amazingly capable. But the Queens' Mirrors are beyond her, yet the Red Cathedral one may have been fixed by Tweedle-people. England is sinking due to the actions of Tier 1 Sparks, and either she's failed to fix it or she *likes* England sinking.

Also most of the other "immortal god-queens" are dead, and it doesn't feel like they did each other in.

My initial idea of her being a Wizard of Oz has been falsified, she's obviously got *something* going on, but I still wonder if it's less general than it seems, with the her mystique being inflated by a few good tricks.

Not just Klaus...remember Gil going madboy at Wooster and threatening to destroy Britain? Wooster certainly acted as though he thought it was a credible threat.

[marycatelli]

Or at least, the attempt would not be a laughing matter, even if failure was guaranteed.

[madfilkentist]

Wooster may have been more terrified for himself than for any objective threat to England.
