[UA] Dreaming 'n Such

[Royal Minister of Stuff]

I don't see why there couldn't be a UA plotline where
someone is trying to reveal the face of the whole
world during its last incarnation.

Was it some sort of Crowlean Age or Horus (or Osiris
or whichever) or was it a strange and unknowable kind
of Atlantean golden age?  Were the dinosaurs the
previous incarnation of the world or was the last
world a lot more like a Busby Berkeley number, repleat
with dancing girls in sexy caveman-like furs.

Maybe a sea of milk was involved and someone died, so
her husband, the Comte of the last world, got really
angry and sad, so he put her on his shoulers and
started dancing.  Unknown to most people, the Comte's
dance signalled the end for that last world, so a
simple, kind fisherman on the sea of milk cut the
Comte's dead bride into a hundred peices and the Comte
had to stop dancing to go look for her.

Just what the hell WAS the last incarnation of the
world like, anyway?
