OK, so orthogonalities are sort of like dimensions?  So, while Ghyll is one dimension, the [[Xurient]] is another one?  Or am I looking at this too complicatedly?  If my original thought is correct, then may I quite calmly suggest that the inhabitants of Orthogonality C in the final image are likely either very good dancers or really dizzy all the time, since it appears to be a spinning orthogonality. :) --[[User:Undrhil|Trousle Undrhil]] 15:20, 26 May 2005 (EDT)
 
 
:I wouldn't say "dimensions"... more "planes of existence" (and even that is up for rebuttal). And remember, the picture you're referring to is a 3-D representation (the shape) of a 4-D concept (the orthogonality) on a 2-D medium (the image). While it intersects on a curved line, that does not mean that it is a spherical or "ring world". See also ''It is believed, however, that turning points increase uniformly in every direction, which is why Ghyll proper and the other orthogonalities can be modeled as having circular surfaces.'' --[[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] 17:35, 26 May 2005 (EDT)

What a cool entry :-) What did you use to create the diagrams? --Larj Zyquon 11:37, 25 May 2005 (EDT)
