Archipelagos

OTHER ISOLAS (Azimuths)

Mundi - North

Graad - North East

Samara - East

Seol - West

NOTES: We love scale references! This doesn't add the most details like the number of islands or the orientation of all of them but we'll take what we can get. There may be more detail in Joyce's Reality Lowdown talk.

Map Wall - Several maps have been attached to a bulletin board hidden inside the alcove. They're held up by small pins. The board has come loose from one corner.

Map Wall - The maps look old and faded. Your eye catches a map of Insulinde, a map of Revachol, and a map of Martinaise.

You - Look at the map of Insulinde.

Map Wall - This large map displays archipelagos. You see a constellation of small dots on the light blue emptiness of the Insulindic ocean. The largest, in the northeast, is "Le Caillou" (you are here). Another, far away in the southwest -- "Semenese Islands (Ile du Fantôme)".

You - What else?

Map Wall - Ozonne, Laurentide, Face-a-la-Mer, Archipelagos, North Arcade Islands... all just specks of dust on the vastness of the Insulindic. On the edges of the map, the colour fades into a blur of dotted lines. Black and white.

Visual Calculus - Disintegrating into mathematics.

Inland Empire - In the northeast a dust mite stands on the north coast of Caillou. In a bookstore. It's you.

Shivers - Radiating outwards from you -- the Suzerain Revachol. With a radius of 80 kilometres. Still, the crown jewel of this isola would be barely visible.

You - Squint first -- can you see *cities* on the islands?

Map Wall - You can. On Caillou -- Revachol, a single black star; on Ozonne -- Fond de l'Air and Virmandeux; on Archipelagos -- Croyant-Morain, Villiers; on Semenine -- Olduvai. And on Laurentide -- Deora Of The Seven Seas...

Empathy - Lost little pearls of light. Tiny fires in the dark.

Encyclopedia - 850 million people live on these little dots. An oceanic world of culture and commerce, torn apart by history.

You - Look at the edges.

Map Wall - The ocean breaks apart into a tangle of cosines and azimuths, all pointing into pale nothingness. *Mundi* is the north azimuth; *Graad* is the northeast azimuth; *Samara* is the east azimuth; *Seol* is the west azimuth. *Isolas*, they're called.

Inland Empire - Connections to other worlds. Worlds past the Insulindian, unknown to you. You only know you've never been there.

Logic - 850 million people live on these tiny dots. An oceanic world of culture and commerce, torn apart by history.

La Tierce Residence by Atelier BOOM-TOWN @atelier.boom.town. Read more: Link in bio! Photography: Raphaël Thibodeau @raphael_thibodeau. Atelier BOOM-TOWN: Taking advantage of a site on the edge of a Laurentian lake, this residence is anchored and embedded on a sloping lot. The deployment of the volumes allows for a varied relationship with the landscape, offering panoramic and plunging views of the lake, as well as interesting views of a tree, a wooded area, or the rocky cliff. It serves as a real observation post of its environment, providing both general views and close-ups. Three main volumes, each with a classic typology and a gable roof, house the core of the architectural program, recalling the rural constructions of a bygone era. Like those buildings, these are lined with oxidized cedar boards… #winter #canada #laurentides #архитектура www.amazingarchitecture.com ✔ A collection of the best contemporary architecture to inspire you. #design #architecture #amazingarchitecture #architect #arquitectura #luxury #realestate #life #cute #architettura #interiordesign #photooftheday #love #travel #construction #furniture #instagood #fashion #beautiful #archilovers #home #house ‎#amazing #picoftheday #architecturephotography ‎#معماری (at Laurentides, Quebec) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqYfBARrv0F/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I want to go in the opposite direction as modern superhero blockbusters in my story with superpowers. Combat is always over very fast and devastatingly brutal, and everyone is way more scary and uncanny than they are cool.

#Laurentide has ice powers but it makes his skin very hot to the touch as he absorbs the heat from the environment.#synthesis is constantly passively using his sound wave powers so everything around him sounds eerily quiet or distorted #blackout can fly if surrounded by a significant amount of metal (he uses magnetism)#except because he's using magnetic tethers it looks like he's a puppet being yanked around.

"MOUNTAIN BANDITS ELUDE ALL PURSUIT," Montreal Gazette. June 1, 1933. Page 4. ---- St. Jovite People Believe They Have Caught Train Into Montreal --- POLICE IDEA OPPOSED --- Tired Detectives Think Pair Still in Woods Where They Have Proved Their Resourcefulness --- (Special to The Gazette.) Ste Agathe des Monts, Que. May 31. - Little hope that the police will capture the .two bank bandits who robbed the St. Jovite branch of the Bank of Montreal and escaped with $2,000 in cash on Monday morning last, is being entertained by local residents. While local woodsmen are of the opinion that the pair had probably jumped a passing train on its way to Montreal, the provincial police still insist that the men are hiding in the woods not far from this town and the search is being continued. All day today detectives and members of the posse which pursued the fugitives, combed the woods and later reported that no trace of the men could be found.

Sergeant Detective Lasnier, of the provincial police, who returned to the Raymond Hotel this morning after an all night search of the woods, reported that he is convinced that the pair sought are expert woodsmen who are familiar with these mountains. They have been successful in eluding the posse several times, and had probably, by this time, taken a different course through the bush without the knowledge of the pursuers. He stated, however, that the men have not left the woods and will have to make an appearance in some town sooner or later to get food. All towns in the Laurentians have been notified of this and asked to communicate with police as soon as suspicious men are seen.

The posse which has sought the two men since Monday through the woods between Ste. Agathe and St. Jovite, has been considerably reduced, and there remain about 15 or 20 men. Sergt. Detective Lasnier announced that he withdrew four of the six detectives who were with him during the search. Two detectives have remained here with the posse, and today conducted an all-day search.

ADOPT NEW TACTICS. Detective Lasnier left here this afternoon for Montreal with the two overcoats and the money which was found cached near the entrance of the woods into which the men escaped at St. Jovite. Before leaving, however, ho said that he will conduct an investigation along other lines which might lead to establishing the identity of the two gunmen. Detectives will try to find out whether any men have suddenly disappeared from their homes in the mountains, and in this way it might be possible to find out who the gunmen are. So far no report of any disappearance shas reached the police.

Local residents, however, are of the opinion that the two men remained in hiding near one of the many up grades and jumped on a passing freight train. The pair may have got on a train heading north,and again they may have gone to-wards Montreal.

Detectives conducting the search are puzzled as to how the pair were able to make their way through the thick bush without having eaten since probably before the hold-up was committed.

At local provincial police head-quarters it was learned yesterday afternoon that Sergeant-Detective Lasnier and four detectives had arrived. They were tired and worn, but the only thing that bothered Sergeant Lasnier and Detective Merineau was that they had each lost, through wear and tear, a pair of perfectly good trousers and had to purchase khaki pants at Ste. Agathe yesterday afternoon.

Questioned by The Gazette upon his arrival, Sergeant Detective Lasnier refused to have anything to say about the case except for the fact that he and his men endured many hardships during the search due to the fact that they were unfamiliar with the woods.
