The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Narrow panel. Doris and Fiorella, their ruck-sacks in hand, emerge through frosted-glass doors from a short passageway.

Caption: Their Fokker secured, Doris and Fiorella enter the Mandala Hotel lobby.

Panel 2
Panel fills remainder of this strip's half-page: Establishing shot the lobby of the Hotel Mandala.

It should be a scene of jaw-dropping ostentatious splendor, highly-decorated walls and ceilings, Ming vases, overstuffed furniture, go nuts. Inhabiting the scene should be a smattering of people in varying genders and colors and clothing, milling about or lounging. Mix in a couple or three people wearing clothing that suggests 'hotel staff,' doing the sorts of things top-shelf hotel staff do.

There is a noticeable curvature in the floor (and ceiling where we see it), similar to the scene inside the Big Wheel Space Station in 2001 where Heywood Floyd chats with some Russian friends, only a bit more so. The acceleration effect here is a tiny bit more than Ceres gravity, at 0.05 gee. Which means people 'walk' by gliding around on tippy-toe, like on Ceres. However, since most guests are from heavier-gravity worlds, hand-rails are placed strategically to help 'heavy-leggers' get around.

The girls stand in the middle of it all, looking about in wonderment.
