"You're from Chessboard Zero," the green-haired lass explained in a tone that conveyed the simple message that she'd done this too many times already.  "Chessboard One is a bit tweaked.  Things get progressively weirder from there.  All the way down to the mythical wonderland that is Chessboard Seven.  Nobody really knows what's down there, but..."<br/><br/>She leaned closer, eyes glittering with mischief.<br/><br/>"Rumor has it a whole bunch of nightmares tried to attack it, once.  The survivors threw up barricades around the entrances they could find and try to stop people from going there.  Been that way ever since.  Kind of makes me want to go find out what's in there that scares them so bad."<br/><br/>Ingress rolled her eyes.<br/><br/>"Stop scaring the Bigger, Alice!  Can't you see she's past her wit's end with all this?  First she can't sleep, next she's found herself in the Mad City...I dare say she's got other concerns than your bogeymen."  She gave Sunny a polite little smile.  "To answer your questions about the Kingdom of Wax...yes.  And no.  That is to say, there are places that defend against the King's people by keeping the winds of rage nice and hot, and others that chill it until it shatters at a thought.  And darkness is the nature of the Mad City.  All the better to hide you with."
