did you know that in one of dorm epel's voicelines he mentions he once got lost in pomefiore and ended up in a creepy basement. it's never mentioned again or given any clarification and i think about it every day

that comes up a couple of times actually! there's just like...a weird creepy dungeon slash old alchemy lab that the Pomefiore castle was built on top of. I think Vil might use it sometimes? but really it serves absolutely no purpose beyond the characters every once in a while being like "oh yeah, there's that secret underground laboratory we all apparently know about" and then never elaborating on it at all.

(I know it's a movie reference, but it's still pretty wild to just. in-universe have a not-so-secret basement alchemy dungeon that never has any relevance beyond a couple of throwaway lines. what other buckwild secrets does NRC hold that the characters just never talk about for some reason)

#art #twisted wonderland #the nrc campus is fascinating to me #do you ever just think about how the characters are like...stargating around all the time #you get out of class for the day and teleport to what might be a literal ancient castle to go to bed #i have been lowkey thinking about this ever since jamil yeeted us out of the dorm and to the end of the world that one time #and honestly i don't know what to do with this information #it just feels like something that should be more important than it is
