The series *Monarch: Legacy of Monsters* has expanded the Monsterverse's geography with Axis Mundi. This space is not Hollow Earth, but an intermediate and unstable region that connects the surface with the depths through a network of tunnels. Its defining feature is a temporal distortion caused by the gravitational forces of the worlds surrounding it. It manifests as isolated pockets where time flows irregularly and is detectable from the surface by gamma radiation emissions.
Detection and mapping of an unstable space 🗺️
The main technical challenge for Monarch is mapping a zone whose physical laws are variable. Detection is based on gamma radiation sensors, which record anomalous peaks in seemingly random locations. Entry appears to require specific conditions, such as Titan activity or the opening of a portal. Once inside, conventional navigation technology fails, as spatiotemporal references are incoherent. The development of beacons with stable chronological signatures is a priority research line.
A perfect place to lose your flight (and your century) ⏳
This place solves the logistical problem of Titans commuting to work, but for a human, it's the worst possible trade-off. Imagine entering through a tunnel and exiting decades later, just because you got distracted looking at strange luminescent flora. It's the dream destination for anyone wanting to evade taxes, authorities, or passing fads. That said, the internet connection must be terrible, which explains why no Titan posts selfies to their social media from there.
