THE    TRAIN    IS   A   DASHING   ARROW 
 OVER              THE               SEA. 
                                     
                                    
                                     
 LOOK    CLOSER   -   IT'S   NOT   WATER. 
                                    
                                  
                                    
 THE  LOWLAND WHICH  WAS ONCE THE MIDRIFF 
 OF  SWEDEN.  THE  SALT  FLATS  SPAN  FOR 
 HUNDREDS  OF MILES. FROM  A NARROW  LINE 
 OF HILLS  THE TRAIN  LOWERS  ITSELF ONTO 
 THE  CRYSTALS AND  SHOOTS  NORTH, LIKE A 
 SYRINGE       INTO       A       BALOON. 
                                  
                                
                                  
                                
                                  
 THEY  CALL IT  THE  "MANDELBROT CRATER", 
 AND IT IS THE REST OF A MINING DISASTER. 
                                    
                                   
                                    
 SUN  HITS THE  FOUR-RAILED  TRACK, AS IT 
 FRACTURES INTO VILLAGES  OR  PAST  THEM. 
 THE  PEOPLE  HERE ARE  PALE  BUT  CRISP, 
 REFLECTIONS   OF    SOME   OTHER   WORLD 
                                     
                                    
                                     
 THEY ALWAYS SEEM A BIT  ANNOYED THAT YOU 
 ARE  MANIFESTING   THEM   INTO  PHYSICAL 
 FORM.  LIKE IF  YOU WEREN'T  HERE,  THEY 
 WOULD  BE  NOTHING  MORE  THAN  THE  SUN 
 AGAINST           THE           PLATFORM
