When You Look In A Mirror... What Is Looking Back?

Steamtown - the Zoomways

Zoomways are stable wormholes between worlds. Their appearance is basically that of a whirlpool in mid-air, which opens into a tunnel of a particular colour or shade.

The known types of Zoomways include:

The Paisley Zoomway - allowing travel between different parallel worlds and different time periods. An extremely powerful entity resembling a meso-American deity and known as The Paisley God claims dominion over this Zoomway and all who try and use it.

The Black Zoomway - leading into the Realm of Death. No one can pass through the Zoomway and remain Alive, although they might not necessarily emerge Dead, either.

The Rose Zoomway - named for its resemblance to pink-red roses and their spiked green stems, the interior of this Zoomway is shot through with those colours. It is used to travel into the past and future of the parallel universe in which you currently reside.

The Jade Zoomway - this Zoomway leads to the Asiatic-seeming Court of the August Personage in Jade and other celestial entities claiming to be Old Earth Gods. There is something odd about them though, and when encountered by Quo all was not as it seemed at the Court...

More Zoomways in another update to come!
