The Black Forest comprises primary forest of the Second Hemisphere. The exact dimensions and makeup of The Black Forest are unknown. The Black Forest is estimated to encompass 144,000 hectares of width and 144,000 hectares of length although the exact boundaries of this forest remain undiscovered. Each hectare contains 30 wolves. Every fifth hectare contains a village. Every ninth hectare contains a Ruin. Every twentieth hectare contains an entrance to the grotto. Every twenty-fifth hectare contains a Ziggurat forming focal point for all wolf distribution in surrounding sector. The thick sludge of the forest floor is highly prized by peasants and ascetics. The trees of the Black Forest emit a toxic gas when chopped or burnt, making them unusable for any task. This is all currently established information about The Black Forest.
In Ersilia, to establish the relationships that sustain the city's life, the inhabitants stretch strings from the corners of the houses, white or black or gray or black-and-white according to whether they mark a relationdhip of blood, of trade, authority, agency. When the strings become so numerous that you can no longer pass among them, the inhabitants leave: the houses are dismantled; only the strings and their supports remain. From a mountainside, camping with their household goods, Ersilia's refugees look at the labyrinth of taut strings and poles that rise in the plain. That is the city of Ersilia still, and they are nothing. They rebuild Ersilia elsewhere. They weave a similar pattern of strings which they would like to be more complex and at the same time more regular than the other. Then they abandon it and take themselves and their houses still farther away. Thus, when traveling in the territory of Ersilia, you come upon the ruins of abandoned cities, without the walls which do not last, without the bones of the dead which the wind rolls away: spiderwebs of intricate relationships seeking a form.
You feel a benign presence enter your brain... "I can see you still have a lot of questions about the pyramid! Ha ha ha... The impetuousness of Youth... But this old man will do his best to explain. What is Crystal Pyramid? The length of each side in Crystal Pyramid is Infinite. The total height to Crystal Pyramid is Infinite. The absolute area encompassed by Crystal Pyramid is Infinite. There are Infinite corners to the pyramid although a maximum of four can be seen at any moment. Now do you understand? The positions occupied by Crystal Pyramid consist of All Positions. The Crystal Pyramid is hollow and the walls are Infinitely thin. The concept of externality is alien to Crystal Pyramid. The age of Crystal Pyramid is Infinite Age and the place it comes from is Infinite Place. All skeletons represent a side of Crystal Pyramid. There are Infinite sides. The aim of skeletons is to produce Infinite skeletons in order to attain the grace of the Pyramid. Well, I hope this answers all your questions." The voice recedes...
