![]() ![]() Truth is we don’t know until we find out. Whispers of what’s happening out there, while we’re over here surrounded by candylions grazing on their holographic grass. But there’s always talk of what’s going on outside the Orphanarium. ![]() We try so hard to stay alive but the chaos spills through the walls onto us. And the way things are right now is all about the situation with the Elementals. Our pet is called Killy, a cyborg dog who was born out of the air like you and me, but has since been built up with robot parts so she can live longer. Cyberia is our friend android and she has a window in her head, a sphere like a crystal mind monitor. Daff is me and Dil is you and together we are twins pulled from the same vacuum of space. Here, people are born out of the air or made like computers and put together. Think: a city in a massive box, vacuum-sealed tight. The Orphanarium is a surreal dystopian novel reminiscent of early bizarro works like Lost in Cat Brain Land by Cameron Pierce and Sea of the Patchwork Cats by Carlton Mellick III, as well as the poetic dreamscapes of Richard Brautigan and Hayao Miyazaki. ![]()
