One of my favorite threads closed, so I'm reviving it here.
Here is an idea of what happend in Ix that I find intriguing. www.glitch.com/forum/genera...
For those of us who have taken a trip to the Rook Museum in Jethimadh I refer you to this image attributed to Heepbo Gonx. Note the caption; "The world divides as Lem is overcome." Note as well the sky and the architecture, does it not remind you of the sky and architecture of Ix?
I now refer you to this artifact recovered in the isle of Uralia and widely believed to be the only artifact of Rookish origin ever to fall into Glitchian hands. Note that Uralia and Ix are neighboring isles in the Miscellanous Islands Archipelago.
It is my theory that the initial invasion of the Rook occurred in Ix, which could account for several things. First, the crack in the sky above Guillermo Gamera Way and the differences between that area and Flipside. Second, the similarities between the dark side of Ix and Hell One.
Lem, being the Giant of Travel and Directions, was the first Giant to be attacked since his defeat would open the way for the Rook. His defeat would have caused rifts to open within Ur, the primary example being the crack in the sky above Guillermo Gamera Way. Hell One, therefore, is probably a result of this fracturing of Ur, which is why it shares the same landscape of Ix. If this thesis is correct, then Hell One was brought about by the incursion of the Rook and Ix's current appearance is the result of Lem's defeat during the first incursion.
The Rook is Trisor's faithful pet. He is angry at Clopunnny for Trisor's demise and exile into Hell. He is angry he has lost his Giant, and He is doing his best to get Trisor back. He will continue to fight us, until Trisor is returned as the 12th Giant and let out of Hell.
