Recently, a semi-sunken temple was located in a swampy area near the main island. Over the doorway were carved the words "Stella Portæ" in Ancient. Originally, the discoverers thought that they had found the crypt of a large ("Portly") woman named "Stella", but all they found inside was a 30-foot diameter ring-like object with 39 strange glyphs embossed around its periphery. Nearby was an altar-like object with the same 39 glyphs embossed on its surface. Archeologists believe that the site had religious significance.


Hahaha. I didn't even need to Google that one.

Let me guess, was it buried in sand or underwater?

Semi-submerged in muck. They'll have to install some construction beams under the structure to help level it and raise it up.

Why? I would have thought a planet of ones own of general spectrum interest?

It is not specifically an Autism-related topic.

Theoretically, I'd agree with you. In this case, it probably does belong here.

So, inventing a complete, safe environment where you can be just who you really are, without anxiety or covering up isn't specific to the spectrum? I thought some of the posts here were magic and obviously joyful. :(

No, it isn't. It is a common human trait.

Not to mention that I wonder if there is someone here that wants to pack their bags and go to Endor, a forested moon orbiting around a gas giant, to live with a race of beings that are like teddy bears. In which the "bus" to get there could be a Trimaxian Drone Ship that can travel the distance of 560 light years in 2.2 solar hours while four years would have passed here on Earth.
