Cellars and prospection

Postby Kruzminator » Thu Oct 22, 2015 9:37 pm

Hey,

I just did a cellar and decided to prospect out of curiosity and got the following message:

"There are only turtles below"

What is this? are the gods toying with us? or are turtles the rarest metal in Hafen?

""Turtles all the way down" is a jocular expression of the infinite regress problem in cosmology posed by the "unmoved mover" paradox. The metaphor in the anecdote represents a popular notion of the theory that Earth is actually flat and is supported on the back of a World Turtle, which itself is propped up by a chain of larger and larger turtles. Questioning what the final turtle might be standing on, the anecdote humorously concludes that it is "turtles all the way down"."

Well played jorb <3

Definitely going to have to start compiling easter eggs for somewhere....
