  1. Q: "What is a Descriptive Book?"
  2. A: "A search engine for an infinate universe. Write in the book (using a special language) describing a place, then touch the book, and it will take you to a place that meets the description. The catch is, it will work even if it's a place you tried to make up. The fact is, it already existed somewhere out there in our infinate universe, and it will take you there. It will (In all known cases) be an undiscovered hospitable planet somewhere off an an unknown location, nowhere remotely related to our observable universe. Another catch: This always happens. Every time. No one has ever been able to make a Descriptive Book that goes to a real place in our universe, like another location on earth. Even if you perfectly described, for example, the Grand Canyon (an impossible feat, but bear with me), you'd end up in a distance universe on a hospitable planet standing in something that looks nearly exactly like the Grand Canyon. It's not always a location on a planet. If you described space, you'd end up in space. There are some major risks in describing enviornments that are paradoxical with the known universal laws, but I'll answer that if asked."

  4. Q: "What is a Linking Book?"
  5. A: "The reverse of a Descriptive Book. A Linking book always takes you to the location it was created, with some limitations. A linking book won't do anything if used in the age it takes you to. Linking Books are also bound to the descriptive book for the Age they were written in. Should their Descriptive Book be destroyed, the Linking Books stop working too. Think of them like a shortcut file on a computer."

  7. Q: "What is an Age?"
  8. A: "An age is a place a book takes you to, and everything infinately nearby. Our universe is infinate, so infinate, that when you use a Descriptive/Linking Book, you can be sure you will always be moving an infinate distance away. And in fact, Linking Books only work when they will take you an infinate distance away. So if you, for example, created two different Linking Books on earth, they will not link to each other's location. But take them to another age, and suddenly they'll work: They'll take you back to earth when you touch them."

  10. Q: "What comes with you when you touch a Descriptive/Linking Book?"
  11. A: "Imagine yourself standing in a room. Now take one step forward. Anything that stayed behind woudl also stay behind in a Link. Anything that moved one step forward with you, would also come with you: Your clothes, dental fillings, a thin layer of nearby air, a backpack if you were wearing one, etc, with one very important exception: The book you used never comes with you. Descripive book, Linking book, both are the same. The one you're using never comes with you. Additional ones you're holding will come with you, though. Just not the one being used. If you're holding it, it will fall to the floor, so be sure it's on a table or something."

  13. Q: "What happens if a book is destroyed?"
  14. A: "If you're worred you'll destroy a world, don't worry. You won't. The age existed before you wrote about it, and it will continue existing if you destroy the book. If you destroyed a Linking Book, nothing particular happens other than you won't be using that book anymore. If you destroy a Descriptive Book, though, any linking books written in that age will stop working. Meaning no one will be linking to that age anymore. People can link out, but no one will be linking in. Because of this, Descriptive Books are usually safely guarded while the Linking Books are used as thier replacements, since destroying one doesn't really mean much other than destroying a way out of the age."

  16. Q: "What happens if you change/add to what is written in a Descriptive book?"
  17. A: "The place it links to will change to reflect it's new description. Any Linking books made prior will stop working entirely. Nothing special will happen to those in the old age, they can still use any books in that age to leave, but no one will be going back once the link is broken. The new Age described by the Descriptive book will be, in most cases, almost exactly the same, safe for the differences. This proves that an infinate number of nearly identicle locations exist in our infinate universe."
