The Bar of Despair

The Bar of Despair is a fabled place where the inverses of every individual, the ‘flips,’ lie in dormancy. It supposedly has drinks of every emotion, as flips are unable to natively experience emotion. Flips are able to change places with their real-reality counterpart by crossing some treacherous plane of barely reality.

The Bar Itself

The Bar of Despair is a place woven into the idea of Buhukiea but it is not formally a place. It is not conventionally accessible nor is it a dimension. It is a place necessary to exist but also cannot exist as a true space.

The Bar of Despair is thus everywhere and nowhere. It is truth and myth and it can be everything and nothing. That is true in of itself and true for its inhabitants.

The Inhabitants: The Flips

The Bar is inhabited by ‘flips’. Basically the inverse or opposite of a person. Flips are basically one’s alternate potential. They are another sort of potential that a person has, and they are kept inside the Bar of Despair. They are reflections of us and they watch us. But they are not without agency.

If they feel compelled to, a flip can make a dangerous journey across the Plane of Eternity, evading the Guards of the Wastes, to take over in ‘being’. If they fail, they ‘die’ in a way.

Flips will join in the ‘all’ at this time or at Dialona for their ‘whole’.

The Bartender: Gamci

Gamci is the Bartender. He is the only bartender and he services everyone, offering drinks of emotions.

Gamci can be best understood as a sort of proxy or avatar for the Universe and Catasore. Gamci is beyond the Gods or the Titans, sort of like Nethaer. A functional entity created by and close to Catasore.
