The Emergency Escape Tunnels

the escape tunnels · the hole in the floor · the trap doors

The hatch at station 12 is quiet for once — a twenty-foot drop to an upside-down room, with nothing coming up.

Story so far

Elle McGib gives the first calm inspection of one. The hole in the floor at Station 12 has nothing coming up out of it; looking through it, the drop is about twenty feet, it goes all the way to the mirrored room across the way, and there is another door over there in a room that is also burnt out and upside down. What a trip, she says.

Her rock establishes how gravity works inside The Space In-Between, and Princess Donut renames the whole layer the Noodle. Only the transfer, prime and stairwell stations have these hatches at all, which is why the plain stations can be held.

Appearance

A round section of station floor fallen away, a twenty-foot drop to a mirrored room, another doorway visible across the gap.

Role

The floor's hatches, and the doorway between mirrored stations.

Relationships
