The Lunar World embraces fantasies that have accumulated enough fear, desire, and repetition to take on a life of their own.

Origin and Manifestations

It contains the Jester’s domains, living exhibits, and passageways to the Dollhouse. Time is governed by dramatic structure: the scene repeats until a participant fulfills a role or breaks a rule.

Erotic Nature

The erotic nature of this world is theatrical. The body becomes a costume, and desire becomes direction. The most dangerous pleasure here is the one that seems perfectly suited to a character, because it reinforces their assigned role.

Countermeasures and Cost

Preserve the name and the outward goal. Secure the anchors of fantasy without attempting to conquer the entire world at once. The liberation of a large number of exhibits could lead to an eternal lunar night on Earth.
