Madda
In
the late 1800s, an amateur bike maker named Victor Madda went for a test run
with one of his two-wheeled, self-propelled vehicles he’d been working on for a
few months. As he rode down a dirt
country rode, his wheel hit a large stone and he flew forward toward a large,
ancient oak tree. Instead of a
collision, he found himself in this surreal, alternate universe full of plants
and animals with unnatural colors and patterns. The most dominant and unusual feature of the world was the
mountains of bike parts randomly placed among the trees. Since bike making was Victor’s only
skill, he used his knowledge to build a house, well, transportation, and other
mundane tools. Overtime, more
people came across the rift in the old oak tree and were transported to Madda,
where a civilization dependant on bike technology was formed. Bike makers became the kings of the
land and were highly admired and revered.
However, Victor stayed in seclusion in his mountaintop laboratory with
his family.
The
world is bathed in rich, deep colors.
There are two moons, which look like bike wheels due to the spoke-like
ridges. The capital city was
founded where the rift opens up, which is in the valley of steep, rocky
mountains the color of deep lavender.
Victor lives on top of one of those mountains, overlooking the city but
far enough away to not be disturbed.
Bike makers adopted the style of dress of scientists. People from Earth, after discovering
the rift, travel to Madda to witness the spectacular bike architecture and
surreal landscapes.
