Great Dangaroo Flood
This plaque has been placed at the high water mark of one of the worst floods of the En'kymhuirian times. Incredibly, after two years at sea on their rafts of asphalt, the Tehachapi, the great road builders of Extrelliia [the initial k is not usually written], nearly foundered here at the end. But that first dusc, as the waters receded, the sky cleared, revealing a sign: no new heavens at all, but, for just that one night, the stars from their other side of the world; and so they called the place kNow Estrelliia - the name now given to this whole rezhn of Arctic Islands.
